Happy New Year!
As we step into 2025, I hope everyone had a restful holiday season and is feeling energized for the year ahead. January is a time for fresh starts and new goals, and our community is no different. Stay tuned for updates, and let’s make this year a great one!
Budget 2025
This past November, I was among several Councillors who brought forward amendments to reduce spending in this year’s budget and focus the City’s dollars on core infrastructure. I ultimately voted no against the budget, which passed with a 9-6 vote. I have released my full statement with rationale for how I voted and a summary of the amendments I supported. You can find this statement on our webpage at Calgary.ca/ward2.
