This vote of confidence from my colleagues inspires me to continue working diligently to address the needs of our community and to ensure the delivery of high-quality services to our residents," Ewald said.

“I am very pleased to be able to return as vice-chair and I thank the members for their support. Together with Debbie and the entire board, I look forward to building on the progress we've made and finding innovative solutions to meet the evolving needs of our community," Hallikas said.
