Meet Michael

Dear Neighbors,

 

It brings me immense joy to mark a significant milestone – a full year of serving the vibrant community of Ward 6 in the City of Richmond Hill. This past year has been nothing short of eventful, especially as we celebrated the City's 150th Anniversary alongside our ongoing efforts to enhance our community.

 

Throughout the year, I've had the privilege of working alongside all of you, striving to address crucial issues and foster a stronger, safer neighbourhood. Through our collective efforts, we have successfully hosted five events, delving into topics such as residential and traffic safety, updates on the Yonge North Subway Extension and Richmond Hill Secondary Plan, as well as pivotal mid-term updates on the Times Square arson investigation. We were delighted with the enthusiasm of future mayors through our Young Mayor Workshop.

 

As we navigate the winter season, I am proposing a new motion to create a comprehensive review, in 2024, of Richmond Hill’s current winter maintenance practices. I believe this review will help the City better ensure our community's safety and well-being during the colder months.

This newsletter is packed with updates on numerous local projects and city-wide initiatives, which I hope you’ll find useful and encourage you to engage in our community to create an even more vibrant and supportive place to call home.

 

Thank you for allowing me the honour of serving you this past year. Your input, support, and engagement remain invaluable, shaping the future of Ward 6. I'm eager to continue our journey together.

 

Best wishes for the year ahead,

 

Michael Shiu

Councillor, Ward 6

City of Richmond Hill
