Roger Anderson
Re: Annual Address
Roger Anderson, Regional Chair, Region of Durham, appeared before Council to
provide an outline of the key priorities and to highlight their progress over the past year.
He noted that the Region has increased accountability and transparency by introducing
a Code of Conduct, Integrity Commissioner, Ombudsman and a by-law which adjusts
Regional composition to better reflect the population. He also noted that improvements
have been made in technology which have enabled Regional information to be more
readily available, enabling the public to have better access to services. Mr. Anderson
also outlined how the Region is preparing for an aging population by developing an age
friendly strategy, with the first step of implementation being the formation of a council of
aging this Fall. He also stated that the creation of sustainable communities, including
infrastructure and facilities, is another key priority. He outlined key road expansions, as
well as the extension of Go rail to Bowmanville by 2024. He stated that in talks with
Metrolinx, it was clearly indicated that the rails must be electrified. Mr. Anderson also
stated that another key objective was to grow and diversify our economy, stating the
proposed Pickering Airport as the greatest economic development opportunity for
Durham Region.
A discussion period ensued with Members inquiring how the City could assist the
Region with advocacy at the Provincial level, as well as questioning to what extent
Provincial funding would assist municipalities with enforcement of medical marijuana
operations.
Concerns were noted with respect to the completion times for the roadwork construction
projects this year. It was noted that the City would be seeking support for a future
resolution to Good Roads and possibly the Association of Municipalites of Ontario to
collectively bring the industry back into line with the realities of the impacts on
municipalities during roadwork construction.
