Singh filed her nomination papers Thursday.
鈥淚t has been a tremendous honor and opportunity for me to serve the citizens of 麻豆精选 and bring their diverse perspectives and voices to the table. Although we have accomplished a lot during the past term, there is a significant amount of work left to be done to make our city the best mid-sized city in North America. I want 麻豆精选 to be a city that is a safe and vibrant place to live, work, and play.鈥�
Singh鈥檚 said her platform is built on the priorities established by the current council which include building vibrant urban centers, ensuring a healthy, safe, active, and inclusive community; delivering a balanced transportation network, acting as a catalyst for business, creating housing diversity, addressing homelessness, ensuring public safety, preserving agricultural land, providing clean drinking water and ensuring strong financial management at the local level.
鈥溌槎咕� is experiencing tremendous growth, and with that growth we need to ensure that we address the concerns of our increasingly diverse population,鈥� she said.
鈥淚 see addressing the homelessness situation as a key priority. This is an issue at the forefront for many jurisdictions, and 麻豆精选 is no different. I strongly support partnerships between all levels of government, community agencies, and not-for-profit organizations to address this issue using a multi-faceted approach, aimed at reducing both the incidence and impact. Additionally, I believe the preservation of agricultural lands and delivering an effective public transportation system are crucial to building an active, healthy, and inclusive community for all our citizens.鈥�
