My thoughts…
-
Strong communities are built on responsible financial management and smart investments. As Deputy Mayor, I will work to ensure every tax dollar is spent wisely by supporting balanced budgets, prioritizing essential services, and making decisions that provide long-term value for residents.
Maintaining and improving our roads is essential for the safety of our residents, businesses, and visitors. I will advocate for strategic infrastructure investments that keep our transportation network safe, reliable, and prepared for future growth while ensuring projects are completed efficiently and responsibly.
Reliable water, wastewater, and utility services are the foundation of a healthy and growing community. I will support proactive planning and infrastructure improvements that protect these vital services, meet the needs of a growing population, and help avoid costly emergency repairs in the future.
-
A strong local economy creates opportunities for everyone. As Deputy Mayor, I will support policies that encourage responsible business growth, attract new investment, and help our existing businesses thrive. By cutting unnecessary barriers, we can create jobs, strengthen our tax base, and ensure Kingsville remains a great place to live, work, and invest.
Housing is one of the biggest challenges facing our community. We need to support responsible development that provides a range of housing options for young families, seniors, and workers, while protecting the character of our neighbourhoods. I will advocate for practical solutions that increase housing availability, improve affordability, and ensure growth is supported by the infrastructure and services our residents deserve.
-
Kingsville's natural beauty is one of our greatest assets. As Deputy Mayor, I will support practical environmental stewardship that protects our parks, waterways, and green spaces while ensuring future generations can enjoy the same quality of life we value today.
Our parks and recreational facilities play an important role in bringing our community together and promoting healthy, active lifestyles. I will advocate for maintaining these spaces, expanding recreational opportunities where needed, and ensuring our facilities remain safe, accessible, and welcoming for residents of all ages.
As our community continues to grow, protecting green space should remain a priority. I will support responsible development that balances growth with environmental sustainability, preserves our natural areas, and maintains the character that makes Kingsville a great place to call home.

As a member of the Kingsville Fire Department, I witnessed firsthand the impact of tragedy and understand the critical importance of rapid response times, proper training, and having the resources our emergency services need to succeed.
Under my leadership as Deputy Mayor, the emergency services our municipality is responsible for will have a strong advocate at the council table. After more than 40 years of serving our community, my commitment to the safety and well-being of the residents of Kingsville remains as strong as ever.
I will always support our fire, police, and emergency medical services by voting to protect the resources they need and by using my experience to help make informed, responsible decisions that strengthen public safety for everyone.
-
I believe in getting the job done—and getting it done right. As a business owner, I understand firsthand that every decision comes with accountability. As Deputy Mayor, I will stand behind my decisions, take responsibility for my actions, and expect the same level of accountability from others.
