Jonathan Cote is seeking input from residents and businesses on topics like housing, transportation, public amenities and the local economy.
As part of the incumbent mayoral candidate’s re-election campaign, he’s launched a survey on his election website – www.votecote.ca. The survey is open until Aug. 31.
“New Westminster is a diverse community and I want my platform to reflect that diversity,” Cote said in a press release. “The more leaders involve citizens in the processes that shape our shared future, the more that future is reflective of everyone’s needs.”
As part of his re-election campaign, Cote is also meeting with residents this month through “walk-and-talks” on Aug. 25 and 26, when he will walk through “iconic neighbourhoods” and give residents a chance to share their ideas about the city along the way.
“I pride myself on being an accessible mayor, he said in the press release. “As I run for re-election, I will ensure that my campaign continues that high standard for openness and accessibility.”
