Jan d’Ailly Releases Platform in Waterloo Town Square

September 20, 2010

WATERLOO – Jan d'Ailly, candidate for Waterloo mayor, released his policy platform at a Waterloo Town Square news conference this morning. Jan addressed reporters and members of the community as he unveiled his platform entitled Leadership for Waterloo which details his plan for the future and provides the vision needed to bring leadership back to the Mayor's Office.

At 17 pages the document is a comprehensive policy paper setting out a vision and a plan for Waterloo. Having been developed over a series of policy development meetings and conversations with community members throughout Waterloo Region, Leadership for Waterloo addresses the issues that matter to the people who call Waterloo home.

Jan's passion for his community, that has driven him to public service during his 20 years in Waterloo and seven years on council, came though this morning as he spoke passionately about Waterloo's future potential stating, "We deserve a Mayor's Office that has a vision for the future, and a set of priorities to move the our community forward, laying the foundation for ongoing success."

That passion will go to work on day one in the Mayor's Office as Jan implements his plan for Waterloo and passes the items on the 180 day action plan, contained in Leadership for Waterloo, through council..

Not only will Leadership for Waterloo be a guide to bringing leadership back to the Mayor's Office it will, as Jan stated today, "be a document that can be used to hold me accountable".
