The decision to run for Council arose from observing the need for more grassroots resident representation. Leah knows there is so much potential in Maple Ridge that has been underdeveloped, especially in the areas of supporting businesses, appropriate development, sports, and tourism. When elected, she would like to see Council:

A. Make a greater effort to support the citizens of Maple Ridge by addressing the taxation rates in this city;

B. Communicate with integrity and invite the citizens to participate in the future of Maple Ridge and listen to their concerns and ideas;

C. Support thoughtful, functional development into the future for homes, local businesses, industries, tourism, and recreation;

D. Use our farmland creatively to support our economy and food security.
