Top 3 issues facing your municipality and its residents that council has control or major influence over: I believe our top three issues revolve around growth and services. The three services that I think will fuel our growth are our roads, recreation, and communication.
Your solutions/approach to those 3 issues:
Invest in our roads as we grow and work with our neighbours to find cost savings doing bulk ordering and service sharing. Invest in recreational infrastructure so that we can own an asset and generate revenue instead of paying more in user fees.
Upgrade the website to make it more user and mobile friendly. Use the website to showcase the township and all the great things in it. Make it the go-to place for all of the information you need.
Do you own (or have a stake in) or operate a commercial/industrial business in your municipality? (Including vacant development lands or rental units): I live on a small hobby farm with my wife Meagan and two children.
