Campaign Priorities
A Practical Plan for Coquitlam
Coquitlam is growing. The decisions made now must protect quality of life, keep infrastructure and services moving with growth, and respect the people who pay for them.
Responsible Growth, Housing and Transportation
Plan housing and development with roads, transit, parks, utilities and community services that keep pace with growth.
Public Safety and Strong Neighbourhoods
Support first responders, emergency preparedness, safer streets, traffic safety and secure public spaces.
Families, Seniors and Quality of Life
Protect access to recreation, parks, trails and community programs for residents at every stage of life.
Community Partnerships, Food Security and Sustainability
Work with nonprofits, volunteers, businesses and residents on food recovery, inclusion and environmental stewardship.
Local Economy and Small Business
Improve City processes, reduce unnecessary delays and support strong commercial areas and local employment.
Fiscal Responsibility and Accountable Government
Respect taxpayers through transparent decisions, careful budgeting and clear reporting on costs, timelines and results.
A Distinct Campaign Priority
Food Recovery and Food Security
Coquitlam can reduce food waste and improve access to nutritious food by bringing businesses, charities, community organizations, institutions and volunteers together.
- Support partnerships that redirect usable food to people instead of landfills.
- Consider food recovery in City events, waste-diversion planning and community grants.
- Reduce practical barriers that make it harder for organizations and businesses to participate.
For me, public service has always been about people.
