The City of Maple Ridge extends its heartfelt gratitude to Superintendent Wendy Mehat for her extraordinary leadership and unwavering dedication to our community during her tenure as Officer-in-Charge of the Ridge Meadows RCMP for the last four years.

Superintendent Mehat’s visionary approach to policing, exemplified through initiatives like the Ridge Family and Youth Resources Support Team (Ridge FYRST) and Project C.O.R.E., has made a lasting impact in Maple Ridge. 

Her commitment to community safety and well-being, combined with her compassionate leadership during challenging times, including the loss of Constable Rick O’Brien, has left an indelible mark on our city.

On behalf of City Council and the entire community, Mayor Ruimy shares:
"Superintendent Wendy Mehat has been an exceptional leader and a true champion for Maple Ridge. Her ability to balance compassion with decisive action has brought meaningful change to our community. While we are sad to see her go, we are incredibly proud of her promotion and know she will continue to serve British Columbia with excellence. Thank you, Superintendent Mehat, for your unwavering commitment to public service and for making Maple Ridge a safer, stronger community."

As Superintendent Mehat embarks on her new role as Chief Superintendent with the BC RCMP’s Provincial Operations Support Team, we wish her continued success and fulfillment in this next chapter of her distinguished career.

We look forward to continuing to work with Inspector Adam Gander Acting Officer-in-Charge.

Thank you, Superintendent Mehat—you will always have a special place in Maple Ridge’s story.
