6. How would you address them?
Attracting industries that have the potential to create more jobs within our community, look at our tax rates in comparison to other communities so we can attract industries to move to our community; collaboration with other communities to participate in the community bus services and the possibility of the return of our recycling services; and attracting and retaining qualified staff, such as a Chief Administration officer, and be an advocate for allowing them to do the jobs that they were hired to do.

I am a hard-working, dedicated individual who lives in this community now and into the foreseeable future. I would like to work for you and be your voice on council. On Oct. 20, I ask you to vote for me and I promise I will work hard on your behalf.
