For Council - Laurin, Richard

I would like to see Elliot lake Grow. I forsee more medical staff and doctors.. city counsel members working together with out conflict. I would like more of us to insure were always listening to the voice of the community. After all we represent them. more stores open like work mens ware house I have already spoke to there cooperate office. I would like to stores where families can buy cloths, and the children’s cloths with out having to leave town. We do need change and I get it some don’t like change we need to think very different. Things are not the way it use to be. Would be great to see low income homes and our food bank social services and employment agencies all work together to help young families back on there feet. If we all work together. We can accomplish this and much more. City projects really need to start moving forward. Road repairs a new arts centre and no more waist of tax payers money,

For Mayor - Marchisella, Dan

Thank you so much, I will try to be brief but there are many pieces of the puzzle that need to come together.         Over the next 10 years much can happen but changes to attitude and mindset of future council is what needs to occur first, working towards the growth of the community and being respectful of each other's opinions must happen. I believe we can affordably build a community center that houses, the arena, pool, walking track, museum, art gallery and 400 seat theatre, but affordably does not mean free. This gem being located in the heart of the downtown core would draw both local traffic and tourism right downtown helping to support all of the local businesses in the area and meeting the needs of all community groups.        Look into what upgrades can be done at the ski hill, lookout tower and provincial park to increase the experience and tourism draw. Housing diversification is a must for a multitude of various needs.        Spine Rd infrastructure...

Welcome to Elliot Lake Vision 2022

"What do you want Elliot Lake to look like in ten years, and how do we get there?" Elliot Lake Vision 2022 is another way for voters and candidates to find each other. It helps level the playing field for those candidates who have a lot to offer us in civic leadership but don't have a large campaign budget and might not have the advantage of "immediate name recognition." Each candidate received the question Sunday morning and has been invited to send a written response by 6:00 pm Wednesday, September 28. Their answer will be kept confidential until Friday, September 30, when they will be published online simultaneously. This allows candidates to  share their vision early in the election campaign in a timestamped, online public space where their best ideas are obviously theirs - not someone else's! After publication, you can promote candidates by sharing a link to their answer either by email or posted on social media however, commenting on the blog will rema...

For Council - Bull, Rick

In the next 10 years, I would like to see Elliot Lake as a community of 13,000+ citizens (more if possible). At least 2 (or more) new industries (either small or medium). A good balance of Seniors, workers, and families. A department store to supply all our basic needs and other retail. Full schools, a venue for the concerts and plays with a museum and Welcome Center as part of it, upgraded parks and better outdoor facilities and trails, with accessibility for all for these areas. Possibly a new hotel/motel. A bustling downtown. No more Elliot Lake known as the city that shuts down at 5 o’clock. Elliot Lake being a year-round Tourism site known province wide. Is it possible? Yes. Here’s how. You must start with a Council that is onboard with all these ideas and some of their own if I missed any. They should have the same vision and able to work together to accomplish this. Encourage more development of housing, both executive and affordable. A Development Charge can be applied to new b...
