Vaughan City Council formally approved the boundary redistribution plan to include a sixth ward and confirmed the appointment of an independent consultant for the consultation process.

TO: Vaughan City Council

FROM:Residents of Vaughan

REASON: Upcoming Ward Boundary Redistribution 2012-2013

We hereby request that the Vaughan City Council authorize an additional ward (increasing the number from 5 to 6) to be added during the upcoming Ward Boundary Review. This new ward will help to more effectively represent both the growing urban areas of Vaughan and the remaining rural areas, by creating at least one rural-based Ward.

We also request that an outside consultant be hired to prepare the Terms of Reference for the Review, as well as the process to be followed in the Public Consultation Process.

The volume of support for this redistricting proposal has officially forced this issue onto the radar of council members. I am currently finalizing a formal briefing document to present at the next scheduled planning committee session.

Our needs are totally different from the urban south end. We need someone who actually cares about the rural parts of the city.

Maple has changed so much in the last few years. One ward just isnt enough anymore to cover everyone.

Finally. The growth up here is insane and we get ignored constantly. Time for some real representation.
