LAMPMAN - Scott Greening was raised on a farm northeast of Benson and moved to Lampman after he married Michele in 1988. They have raised three children and are involved in the town.

Greening attended school in Lampman and played hockey at the town's rink. Over the years he became the local school board chairman and joined town council. He has coached and been an active volunteer through many of the organizations, including СÀ¶ÊÓƵ a member of the Lampman Lions Club.

During the 2011 floods Greening was the mayor of Lampman and when his term came to an end, he took a break as СÀ¶ÊÓƵ mayor took up a big part of his life.

When Greening decided he was going to run for mayor, he stepped away from the Lions but is still hands-on with volunteering. He helps with the chicken sales and street dance where he takes care of the bar and all the volunteers that work it.

He went to the ratepayers, asked about their concerns, and felt he could contribute to making improvements. Since he is semi-retired, he is missing working with people, and he is excited to get back at it.

Greening won Lampman's mayoral election on Nov. 13. As the newly-elected mayor of Lampman, it is his plan to continue to have a good working relationship with the RM of Browning.

“We need to work on important issues since our kids from the surrounding areas all go to the same school, play hockey at the rink or go to curling,” said Greening. “It is very important to enhance the relationship with the RM and keep it strong.”

Residents of the RM also attend a great deal of events in the village.

Greening feels that in the past, a lot of great things have been done with the council, and these things need to keep going. The water treatment plant and the new lagoon are a couple of the big projects on which they have worked.

He wants a positive workplace environment and wants to assure people that he is only a phone call away.

“There is always room for improvement to show people that they are valued,” he said.

Out of the six council members, four of them are new, with two СÀ¶ÊÓƵ certified administrators, and this he feels is a great tool for success.

Greening looks forward to getting back in the role as mayor, and continuing to keep Lampman a viable town to live in.
