Ask Sandra

What's important to you?

Have a question, concern or perspective about something happening in Ward 3 or elsewhere in Trent Hills? I want to hear from you.

Your Questions, My Commitment

Throughout this campaign, I've said that I don't want to assume I know what matters most to residents. I want to hear from you.

If you have a question, concern or idea about Ward 3 or Trent Hills, please send it to me using the form below.

I welcome questions about municipal services, Council decisions, budgets and taxes, roads and infrastructure, planning and development, community services, or anything else affecting you and our community.

I also want to hear your concerns, ideas and perspectives. Understanding how an issue affects you, your family, your farm, your business or your community helps me understand the whole picture.

You decide what's important to ask about.

I'll do my best to give you a straightforward response. Sometimes I may need to do some homework, ask questions or gather more information before I can answer and if that's the case, I'll tell you.

What happens to your question?

Some questions I'm receiving are things other residents are wondering about too. Questions of broader community interest may be shared, along with my response, on my Community Q&A page.

Your personal contact information will not be published.

How I will respond

I will respond directly whenever possible. Your contact information will only be used to respond to your message and will not be published.

If you’re looking for factual information and I know the answer, I’ll share what I know. If I don’t know, I’ll be honest about that and help you find the information where I can.

If you’re asking for my perspective, I’ll share it where I can. But I won’t pretend to have reached a conclusion when I don’t have enough information to make one responsibly.

If your question involves a decision already made by Council, I’ll be careful not to second-guess that decision without having had all the information available to Council at the time.

If an issue could come before council in the future, I won’t promise how I would vote before I’ve had the opportunity to consider the information and perspectives that need to be heard.

What I can promise is that your question or concern will be taken seriously.
