I will try to end barriers that discourage investors and developers from coming to Fort Erie. There must be less red tape for commerce. Reviewing land policy plans in the town and in the Region is important as is working with and visiting existing plants and businesses. 2 STREAMLINE SPENDING - SERVICE FOR YOUR DOLLAR- "THE BUCK STOPS HERE". With exhorbitant amounts in management being spent for little return, there should be co-ordinated planning by council with management and staff for better return on the dollar-constructive planning and spending. (Definite action should be taken if mismanagement is found.) 3 OPEN DOOR POLICY. The only "closed door" meetings that I will chair are those by law - involving personnel, negotiations and litigations. Improved good public relations with staff, council and the public. 4 VANDALISM: PREVENTATIVE PROGRAMS? There have been so many thousands of dollars lost from damage by vandals. Institutions, businesses and residences alike have been victims of malicious destruction. It must be stopped. I will push for restitution from offenders. I will continue to push for a majority of elected officials to serve on the police commission. 5 HIGHWATERBILLING. There should be a stop to continued increases in the taxpayers' water bills. 6 INVOLVING THE REGIONAL COUNCILLOR WITH OUR PROBLEMS: HE OR SHE IS ELECTED BY ALL OF THE PEOPLE.
