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.

CHATS: support my walk for CHATS

CHATS (Community and Home Assistance to Seniors) helps people do just that by providing transportation, meals on wheels, social occasions, visits when the usual support person (who is often a relative) is...
