Centennial Week was a meaningful opportunity to connect more deeply with our community. From April 6 to 12, our team knocked on 2,000 doors and had many thoughtful conversations with residents about what matters most in the neighbourhood. These conversations, from local priorities to everyday concerns, continue to shape the work we bring forward at City Hall.
I encourage you to explore the hashtag #MyCentennial to see highlights and celebrate our community. You can also subscribe to our weekly e-newsletter by visiting councillorshan.ca for more updates.
Centennial Community Forum
Thank you to the more than 30 neighbours who joined us at the Centennial Community Forum. Your participation grounded the discussion in real, everyday experiences. We heard clear concerns about Port Union Rd., recent blackouts, and the growing need for more pickleball space. These priorities will be brought back to the city as we continue pushing for practical improvements that reflect what residents are experiencing on the ground.
A sincere thank you to Kathy Rowe, president of the Centennial Community Recreation Association, for joining us and sharing her insights.
Community Earth Day
It was wonderful to take part in the Community Earth Day event alongside the Centennial Community and Recreation Association. Seeing neighbours come together to celebrate sustainability and care for our shared spaces made the day especially meaningful. We were proud to support the event by providing free compost, helping residents take small but important steps toward greener gardens and a healthier environment. Thank you to everyone who joined and contributed to such a vibrant day.
Supporting the CCRA and Moving Forward Together
The Centennial Community and Recreation Association plays a key role in organizing, advocating, and keeping neighbours informed. As we work to address concerns raised at the forum, from road safety on Port Union to power reliability and expanded recreational space, strong community participation will be essential in moving these priorities forward.
With May as membership month, I encourage residents to consider joining the CCRA. A growing and active membership strengthens Centennial’s collective voice and helps ensure the neighbourhood’s needs are clearly represented. My office will continue working alongside residents and the CCRA to turn these priorities into concrete improvements and keep you updated every step of the way.
