Cumberland has no shortage of interesting issues, and I spend a fair bit of time digging into the reports, budgets and decisions behind them.
These are some of the subjects I regularly research and write about.
Infrastructure & Asset Management
The condition of our roads, water and sewer systems, buildings and other public assets, and what it will cost to maintain and replace them over time.
Municipal Finances
Where our tax dollars go, how services are funded, and the long-term financial commitments behind Village decisions.
Growth & Development
Housing, land use, economic development and how a growing Cumberland can manage its infrastructure and service needs.
Parks, Public Land & Community Services
Protecting important community spaces, understanding the future of public facilities and keeping essential services accessible to residents.
Public Safety & Everyday Issues
Policing, traffic, parking, bylaw enforcement and the smaller issues that affect daily life in the village.
Local Government & Decision-Making
Council decisions, public engagement, project costs and making municipal information easier to understand.
These aren't fixed positions or a political platform. They're subjects I'm interested in, and my opinions may change as new information becomes available.
