Your Source of Information for Ward 9

Dear Neighbours,
What I have learned as Councillor of Ward 9 This spring finds me reflecting on my 3 ½ years on Council. It seems just like yesterday when I was elected as your representative running on a change of honest and effective government. I was determined to be a new voice for Ward 9, supporting neighbourhoods, and encouraging smart development while respecting our heritage and environment, protecting our public services and supporting small businesses. Respect for each other, listening and collaborating is what I stand for. I have learned that decision making can be difficult. Listening to constituents’ concerns and supporting our policies when they are in conflict are difficult to balance. I have learned that balancing Growth, Public Transit, Environmental Protection and innovative approaches to Waste Management still remain a priority to me. I have learned the importance of and the need to do more for affordable housing, reconciliation with First Nations and to encourage women to be the best that they can be. I know the importance of respect. Like most Councils we are faced with many challenges and disappointments. I continue to work hard, be approachable and feel honoured and privileged to be your Representative. I can be reached at 226-927-0439 or ahopkins@london.ca.

Local Planning Appeal Support Centre Now OpenLocal Planning Appeal Support Centre Now Open
April 11, 2018 – Toronto Last week, Ontario’s Local Planning Appeal Support Centre opened its doors to the public for the first time. The centre’s role is to help people understand and navigate the land use planning and appeal process. “People know that what gets built in their community affects their quality of life, but they often don’t know how to influence those decisions,” explains board chair, Anna Pace. “The Local Planning Appeal Support Centre can help bridge that gap.” People with a question about the land use planning process or an appeal can get in touch with the centre using the contact information below. The centre is open from Monday – Friday, 8:30 a.m. – 5 p.m. The centre is an independent agency of the Ontario government, accountable to a board of directors. It was created under the Building Better Communities and Conserving Watersheds Act, 2017. Chair Anna Pace has held senior roles at Metrolinx, the TTC and the City of Toronto. She is joined by board member Mark Leach. Mary Lee is the centre’s executive director and Mark Christie is the manager-registrar. For more information about Anna Pace and the rest of the Local Planning Appeal Support Centre’s leadership team, visit the centre’s website.
