Why this issue matters

Controlled crosswalk, downtown traffic calming, heavy-truck/vehicle safety and child pedestrian protection.

Questions candidates should answer

Controlled school-area crosswalk

What are your thoughts on pursuing a controlled crosswalk or other traffic-calming protection near the school, working with concerned parents, the school, the City, the Province, Ministry of Transportation/Highways or other agencies as needed?

Downtown traffic, business incentives and marketing

Would you support lower downtown speed limits, child/pedestrian warning signage, business-license incentives for new businesses, Chamber membership incentives, and a City-supported marketing page for available retail/commercial space, accommodations and investment opportunities?

What Ledge will look for

Specific actions rather than slogans.
Cost, source of funds and likely impact on tax base.
Which level of government or outside partner is responsible.
How residents can track progress after election day.
