Season 3: Episode 5 - How are we tackling the housing crisis, part one: featuring Dale Mikkelsen

  • Summary

  • In this episode of The Whistler Podcast, Mayor Jack Crompton explores Whistler's housing challenges with Dale Mikkelsen, a long-time Whistlerite who joined the municipality in 2023 as General Manager of Whistler's Climate Action Planning and Development Services Division.

    Before his current role at RMOW, Mikkelsen was the Director of Development and Chief Operating Officer for Simon Fraser University’s sustainable community model, UniverCity, sat on the Whistler Advisory Design Panel, the Whistler Housing Authority board, and was the president of WORCA. Mickelson's insights are grounded in a passion for community and sustainability.
