Welcome to my blog! MY primary objective is to alert my constituents and others in King Township about issues being reviewed at the upcoming Council meetings. I do this as I believe the quality of Council decisions is enhanced when the public is engaged. I hope that residents will make deputations and/or send emails to Council to express their opinion and/or to ask important questions. Also, I include notice of meetings and events which I think are particularly important. I welcome your comments, whether you agree or not with me, and only edit to eliminate inappropriate language.

Volunteer Appreciation Award Process Change
On the September 28 Council agenda there is a memo from Community Services advising of a change in the nomination time period for the Volunteer Appreciation Awards. As reviewed in the report the current timeline for the period of nomination and assessment of 4 weeks is not long enough. The brief time inhibits opportunity for public to make robust nominations and it is too short for the...
