Gerald Shortt ā candidate for Deputy-Mayor in the upcoming municipal election in the Municipality of Meaford.
These are some items from my Election Platform
- Reduce our large property tax increases ā a burden on our lower income taxpayers
- Examine each Municipal Department to see how it can be run more efficiently at less cost
- Renovate and improve the present Library in Meaford. Do not build new library ā definitely not on the Market Square as the present Council has approved if funding is available
- Continue to have an agreement with North Grey Union Public Library for the residents of the former Sydenham Township
- Encourage some development by keeping Development Charges down and not sending developers away to other municipalities
- Rescind the Georgian Beach Lawsuit and use tax dollars to rebuild the swimming pool and other municipal properties for the benefit of our youth, seniors and all residents
