.
With a new year come new year's resolutions and I have no new ones.
From the time I was inaugurated to be your councillor, I have had certain goals and achievements in mind to come to productivity in the next four years.
These goals entail....Internet throughout the Townsihp
A float chart in the building department to inform you up front what is required from you
A better communication from councillor to ratepayers ( I am pushing for a Township wide newsletter from our staff)
Since I have been on council and put in the chair for roads, I have found that the material on the roads are our big problem and although better material may cost more, I would like better products used, one road at a time if necessary.
So far my contribution on Ramara's council on your behalf has been:
Supporting rotating locations for meetings of council throughout the township
Requesting an addition to the Council Agenda called "Long Term Initiatives.
Under this would be subheadings
Addressing your problems as they arise
- - - Quarterly Newsletters
- - - A solution to equalize water debt rate
- - -"Accessible Council Chamber"
- - - "Encourage growth in the Rama Road/Hwy. 12 Corridor for small commercial
- - - tourist oriented businesses." (Held up by provincial legislation for Official
Growth Plans. intertwined with official plans.
Added to that now is also:
- - - Casino Funding - draft motion awaiting Clerk of Legislative Assembly
- - - New Council Chamber
- - - Municipal Owned quarry on Concession Road D -E (staff take no action)
- - - Long term plan for Municipal Buildings space need study in 2008
(space need study arranged through Robert Young, architect.
- - - Energy conservation
- - - Litter Control
- - - Brush Spray Program (program commenced in 2008
- - - Beach maintenance
- - - Quarry Haul Routes (policies are contained in Official Plan)
- - - Public Transit
I will bring this up at the next council meeting to be reduced. Take off what has been taken care of, because the amount of long term initiatives cloud the over all expectancy of success, and add Internet throughout the Township as a long term goal.
I have request several times, that a full converage newsletter be sent out Township wide by the Township to inform you of township business such as Events like Rabies Clinics, Tax Bill dates, public meetings etc. Whether I will be successful at this remains to be seen. So far the information in your tax bill is all there is. PAY ATTENTION TO IT. KEEP IT HANDY. It is all you have to refer to right now,beside Township Webpage, my webpage and my newsletters.
A NEW MAGAZINE...
The Ramara Chronicle is being introduced in the township. Best wishes for a successful long-term edition. The first edition will show us what will be covered. Maybe I can stay with my website only...for council information and save a few trees.
My office is available to you Monday to Friday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at 781 Atherley Road in Atherley. I can be reached after hours at 325-6371.
