Your source for what's happening in the ward

Dear Neighbours,
Looking forward to Mar 2019, London will host Canada’s top music awards. The JUNO Awards promise to be a week-long opportunity to showcase new and top talent, while at the same time allowing London to show off its chops as a city. Stay tuned, announcements to come!
In January Council will tackle the next four-year budget. I look forward to lively discussions and your suggestions as we work to keep taxes reasonable for Londoners.
I want to comment on the traffic concerns being addressed over and over by users of Southdale/Colonel Talbot Rd and Oxford/Commissioners. I hear and share your frustration regarding congestion immediately and as more developments are approved. I have lost count of the number of staff and developer conversations about moving road improvements forward. We must find a better way to have safe roads for all users and I will continue to advocate and have those conversations to find a better way.
An update on the Byron Pit will be released in late December but if you want to comment please contact Bruce Page, at bpage@london.ca or 519-661-2489 ext. 5355.
Now that much of the work has been completed for Lambeth's Main St., work will start in earnest on the Colonel Talbot Pumping Station, so necessary to address sanitary servicing needs for the greater Lambeth/Bostwick area. Roughly adjacent to Diane Crescent, the next phase will run north along Colonel Talbot Rd. Construction will continue into 2019.
Ward 9 has distinct neighbourhoods, diverse needs and strong areas of development growth. It is exciting and challenging to stay on top of everything that is happening in Ward 9 and I encourage residents to contact me at ahopkins@london.ca or 226-927-0439 to discuss concerns, issues or what’s happening in their area so that I can best represent my constituents.
Best wishes to everyone for the coming year,
I can be reached at 226-927-0439 or ahopkins@london.ca.
