Lyn Hall

I’m Lyn Hall, mayor of

Prince George and your candidate for mayor in the upcoming municipal election on Oct. 20.

If re-elected my focus for the next four years is to have an engaged council in our city through the continuati­on of our Talktober events and meetings with partner groups and stakeholde­rs. I will also continue to re-invest in our infrastruc­ture upgrades which includes roads, sidewalks and facilities. Another one of my priorities is seniors and affordable housing; it’s important that this housing is located in all areas of our community and meets the needs of our residents. We have witnessed an increase in various housing projects and I’ll work to ensure that need continues to be met. Our parks and recreation­al areas are important assets. Ongoing upgrades as well as the developmen­t of our river frontage is key to enhancing our recreation­al and lifestyle opportunit­ies. There has been significan­t re-developmen­t in our downtown, with public and private investment making for a stronger community.

I want to continue making Prince George a vibrant city and the best place to live. Over the past four years we have seen significan­t developmen­t throughout our city which has created jobs and has meant that workers can stay in Prince George and provide for their families. I will continue to foster this climate of public and private sector investment.

I bring experience­d and proven leadership to the mayor’s position and would like to thank the residents of Prince George for your support over the past four years. I ask for your vote on Oct. 20 to re-elect me as mayor of Prince George.
