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.

Thanks for mentioning this. I was thinking that the developer was ignoring the seasonal pond near the 15th Sideroad, so…
Excellent idea to carry forward. I remember Susan Swail, former councillor, mentioning that she was hoping to get this idea…
