Doug White has served two terms in office as Mayor as Bradford West Gwillimbury, and is proud of the achievements of Council in that time: construction of a new leisure centre, new library and cultural centre; introduction of public transit; and the transformation of the old library into a family health centre, bringing new doctors to Town – built using a financing model that will see lease payments cover the cost of the renovations, over time, with no impact on taxpayers.
White is seeking a third term in office, to continue “building a complete community, which has been my vision from the start.”Top of his agenda is job creation. The development of the Employment lands at Hwy. 400 “is all coming together now,” with an Early Payment Agreement signed with residential developers that will up-front the costs of infrastructure, from sewer and water mains, to roads.
“I just want to spend the next four years getting jobs out there,” he says . “We have to have a firm time table for the project.”
The 400 lands will provide local employment for residents who are currently commuting, but “most importantly, it will balance our tax base,” lifting the tax burden from the residential ratepayer, he says.
“I’m running on my record,” White says. “We said we were going to build a leisure centre, and we did it. We said we were going to build a library, and we did it. We said we were going to build a medical centre, and we did it. We said we were going to build a transit system and we did it.
“That’s better than a candidate that just attacks the other.”
