Council Update - April 13, 2020

It is a busy week! On top of still working at my day job and juggling a family, this week is packed with meetings.

Tuesday, Middlesex County Council will meet virtually. You can find the agenda here: https://egenda.middlesex.ca/files/agendas/258/. You can also watch the meeting live here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSlRBMaSUbravUhLTjSKc9A

Wednesday, I will be meeting with the Thorndale Community Centre Master Plan Advisory Council virtually, as well as a virtual meeting with the Middlesex County Economic Resiliency Taskforce, which I was appointed to sit on by Warden Burghardt-Jesson. You can learn more about this new taskforce here: https://egenda.middlesex.ca/files/agendas/258/4297_8_a_CC_April_14_Establishment_of_an_Economic_Resiliency_Task_Force.pdf

Thursday is a jam packed day, as I normally would be in Toronto for Ontario Good Roads Association board meetings. Instead, we are meeting virtually! The day starts with Member Services Committee, followed by Policy Committee (which I sit on) and wrapped up with the Board of Directors meeting.

Thursday evening, I have another virtual meeting with the Board of Middlesex-London Health Unit. The agenda is not posted publicly yet, but you will be able to find it here: https://www.healthunit.com/board-of-health-meetings.

Saturday I’m excited to help out with the no-contact food drive to support the Thames Centre Food Drive! I will be responsible for collecting all donations in the Thorndale area. If you are within the village, please have your donations on your porch by 9:00am, and leave a porch light on to signal there is one there! If you are outside of the village, send me your address and I will swing by to pick up your donation, again, just have it on the porch by 9:00am. You can leave non-perishable food items, hygiene products or financial donation if you are able.

No matter how busy you get, don't forget to stop and enjoy the spring flowers!
