Surrey Now

The trees are amazing and the warm sunshine was wonderful!
Yesterday Laurie and I went to the launch of Surrey Now's slate of officers for the next Surrey Civic Election.  We need new blood at city hall.  Troy Van Vliet is running for Mayor.  His message was very interesting.  He has a lot of changes planned for city hall.  He also has a plan to build rent to own homes, so our children will be able to afford to live in this city.  Many are moving out because rents are horrific and buying a home, condo or townhouse is way out of their budget.
