We Asked, the Candidates Responded
The LOBA Elections Team asked the candidates a
Slate of Questions based on our priorities
The Lake of Bays Association does not endorse candidates. Our mandate is to provide information about who is running and what each candidate’s position is on issues that are important to our members–then YOU DECIDE who best represents your interests.
Each candidate was sent a Slate of Questions based on our Election Priorities:
- Action against climate change
- Sustaining healthy water quality
- Shoreline environment protection
- Strong Official Plan language
- Consistent application of the Official Plan and by-laws
- Effective by-law enforcement
- District-wide integrated watershed management
- Good municipal services with a responsible budget
- A year-round economy, and affordable community housing
In the Township of Lake of Bays, one mayor and six councillors are to be elected — two District and four Ward councillors. There are only three incumbents seeking re-election so there will be a change in Council, including a new mayor. Three candidates are running for mayor. Robert Lacroix has been acclaimed for Mclean/Ridout District councillor and Sarah Roberts has been acclaimed for Sinclair Ward councillor. The remaining seats each have two candidates seeking the position. All candidates, acclaimed or otherwise, were asked to complete the questionnaire.
For the 150 or so Lake of Bays properties that are within the Town of Huntsville boundary, we invited the candidates for mayor (four candidates) and Brunel Ward (three candidates) to complete our questionnaire.
