Amalgamation created one municipality. It didn't erase the different identities, challenges and priorities of the communities within it.

Good municipal government starts by listening before deciding what a community needs
 

Priorities

• Make it easier for residents to communicate with the people representing them.
• Create more practical opportunities for communities to raise local concerns.
• Make municipal information easier to find and understand.
• Recognize the work already being done by local organizations, volunteers and community groups.
• Strengthen opportunities for affordable community connection and participation.

The goal

Make local government feel closer to the people it serves.
