Fort Erie International Academy Student Residence Construction, #2
Description
An account of the resource
During summer of 2020, construction began toward building a student residence for Fort Erie International Academy. The progress was hampered by the Covid-19 pandemic, but its pace quickly picked up once restrictions were lifted. Construction workers used pre-fabricated materials to expedite the process of building residence to the immediate north of the old football field.

Mr . Chairman, Your Worship, Fellow Candidates, Concerned
Citizens, Ladies and Gentlemen:
The key issues in this campaign are leadership and
a buiiness approach to the operation of our town.
Outdated concepts and past policies have l eft our
town without visible leadership and direction.
Solutions based on political motives rath er t han
sound business principles have left our community discontent
and have resulted in/Government based. on Cr isi s Manag e:men t.
Lack of Business experience ha s given us:
- Budget overruns
- Contract Controversies
- Unsatisfactory site plan agreements

Lack of Longrange Planning has l e ft our t own :
Without Policies to att r act new busine s s and indus t ry

••••• without job opportunities for y our chil dren.
On the other hand,
Decisive leadership, a businesslike app roa ch and
planned management will give your children t he cboj_c c to live

To Streamline Town Administration my program of Planne d
Management will:
- Combine the Clerk and Administrator's respon s i bi l ities
into one position, eliminating one layer of beaur ocra cy .
- Review all staff positions to ensure the most

'
�- 3 -·
To Create new job opportunites we must:
- Project a positive atmosphere at Town Hall toward s
growth of business and industry.
- Reduce red tape and assist pot enti al employers .
My Program of Planned Management will:
Support the efforts of th e ec onomic de veJ
opoc'r,t
o r !"':i et·r .
and will
Pressure Federal and Provincial Governme nts for
more job creation funds.
Present Planning Policies are outdated:
We need
A review of the official plan
- A review of proposed plan changes for Garri son Road
We need
