Municipal Election Watch - 2006

Replies to questions from the regional and area council candidates for Ward 5 listed in alphabetical order by last name:

Q6: There appears to be a lack of housing appropriate for senior citizens and single persons.  How do you propose to address this gap?

Regional Council Candidates:

Kelly Darnley

"In Bolton, there are opportunities to encourage multi-use, multi-residential projects on lands that are currently occupied in highway commercial zoning. These projects would be ideal for seniors and singles. I would support ‘in-fill’ development in the Bolton core."

Annette Groves

Area Council Candidates:

Egle Boudreau

Sandy Forester

"There is senior's housing going in in Caledon East, the Walker Project, however nothing in Bolton where most of the seniors live.  I would work diligently to have a senior citizens housing project, similar to the Walker Project, in Bolton."

Jason Payne

"Although this is a regional issue that needs to be addressed with Peel Living and the Region of Peel’s Housing department I will work with all the regional councillors to help elevate this burden for our seniors and singles."
