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.

On September 12 Council agenda there is a report recommending assumption of a portion of the servicing for the Dipoce subdivision agreement in Schomberg and assumption of the municipal infrastructure related to the King Station phase 3 subdivision.
