Dear Ward 6 Residents,
On behalf of the Ward 6 team, we wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! We hope that this holiday season is filled with celebration, community, and family.
Over the last year, my team and I have worked hard to achieve some of my campaign promises. We are actively working on building safe and vibrant communities while focusing on Calgary’s economy as we recover from this economic downturn. We serve you with integrity and with the promise of building a Calgary we can all be proud of.
My team and I have been committed to supporting projects that benefit all of Ward 6. We advocated for the final funds required for a brand new 6-acre park in Springbank Hill. Once completed, it is my belief that this park will be a central gathering place for all Ward 6 Residents. We’ve also worked with City Administration to help Community Associations realize cost-savings in their operations. I’ve also supported Notices of Motion that tackle the snow and ice removal and pedestrian safety.
In the past year, we’ve been able to achieve great things for the benefit of all Calgarians. Early on, I drafted a Notice of Motion that saw Council reduce its spending on external conferences while also exploring other cost-saving reductions. Moreover, Council established the Opportunity Calgary Investment Fund—a fund that will be used to attract and retain business to our downtown core. Finally, my Notice of Motion to strike a committee for a new event centre and entertainment district passed.
As we take time to reflect on the past year and celebrate the holiday season, I assure you that I remain focused on you and focused on Ward 6 in the new year.
Sincerely,
Councillor Jeff Davison
