Flags at Half Mast

Monday, September 20, 2021: Flags at Region of Queens Municipality’s Administration Building and Queens Place Emera Centre have been lowered to half mast until sunset on Wednesday, September 22, 2021, out of respect for former Town of Liverpool Councillor and Deputy Mayor John “Charles” (Charlie) Welch, who served our community for 6 years, and was one of two Town of Liverpool Council representatives on the Coordinating Committee for amalgamation to form Region of Queens Municipality.

Charlie held positions on a number of committees of Council including Business Improvement District Commission, Waterfront Development Corporation, Queens Memorial Arena Association, and Joint Services and Arbitration Committee.  He was the last Deputy Mayor for the former Town of Liverpool.

Region of Queens Municipality is grateful for his community service and contributions to the many community organizations on which Charlie Welch volunteered, and deepest condolences are extended to his friends and family.
