I take great pride in serving the community of Summerland as a Councilor.

One of the best parts of my role is connecting with all of the residents, who've turned into friends. Whether it's a wave as you drive by or seeing you at the gym, coffee shop or farmers market, it makes my day to get to connect with you all.

Regardless of who you vote for tomorrow, please make sure you get out and vote! The community needs and values your voice; it's time to speak up and choose who you want to represent you for the next four years.

Cheers-Marty

Another project I was happy to show my support for-Memorial Park Playground Re-vamp!

Council committed $250,000 out of the $265,000 project budget. This youth-focused infrastructure helps attract young families to town, and promotes a healthy lifestyle for Summerland youth.

While this project is tailored towards the younger generation, I made sure to quality test the equipment myself!

One of the main reasons I advocate so heavily for small business owners is because I used to be one!

I owned and operated Alder Street Autobody for 16 years until my eldest son, Kelsey, and his wife, Katrina took over.

Small businesses are the backbone of our community. Extending that support through council-led projects and incentives is one way we can ensure our local businesses thrive for years to come.

My commitment to the community is one of the many qualities I bring to the table. Please consider re-electing me for council!

This is one of the many reasons I'm proud to call Summerland home.

The Lekhi family, the School Board, and the Summerland Community worked to turn a horrible event into something positive for our community.

This symbol is a sign of unity, a celebration of diversity and reflects the positivity that resonates in Summerland ❤️

The housing crisis is impacting communities across Canada. With this in mind, we need to emphasize housing and development opportunities to sustain any growth we hope to see in Summerland.

Here are a few of my priorities when it comes to housing:

1. ECO Village: 66 acres of District-owned land in the Prairie Valley area available for development
2. Bringing Sewer to the Deer Ridge area. This increased development opportunities and gives current residents a much-needed upgrade
3. Creating infill where possible: decreasing subdivision requirements, easing building restrictions, providing incentives for Developers

I still can’t skateboard, but the Summerland Skateboard Park is a project I was happy to be involved in!

Council voted yes to the project in 2018 and allotted $450,000. It's rare to drive by here and see the park empty, it attracts residents young and old!

I plan to continue voting for projects like these that help increase the vibrancy and recreation in Summerland if re-elected.
