Southern Perspective – Episode 15
In Episode 15, Mayor McDonald walks us through the July 13th and July 27th council meetings, covering the Township’s strong 2025 audited financial results, more than $7 million invested in municipal infrastructure, and a zoning amendment supporting additional housing opportunities on a waterfront property at Prevo Point Road.
The discussion also explores continued investment in community infrastructure, including the Green Valley Community Centre roof replacement and municipal fleet renewal, along with a review of the Township’s popular large item collection program as council considers landfill capacity, waste diversion, and the long-term sustainability of the service.
Additional topics include the appointment of Aiden Burgess as the Township’s new Chief Administrative Officer, changes to the Curry House heritage designation, support for community organizations and events, the appointment of the Ontario Ombudsman as Closed Meeting Investigator, and provincial fire protection funding to strengthen firefighter health, safety, and preparedness for emerging risks.
Why Southern Perspective?
Because it goes beyond meeting minutes — giving residents a clear, conversational understanding of how decisions are made, why they matter, and how they shape the future of South Glengarry.
