It is an exciting time to be guiding the City of Surrey. Surrey is strategically positioned to become the next great metropolitan centre in our region, offering numerous opportunities for residents, visitors, businesses and investors. As the fastest growing and second largest city in British Columbia, we have a unique opportunity to build the City of the Future.
Working with community and business stakeholders, we are focused on developing and implementing new and innovative initiatives that will attract strategic investment. With numerous projects on stream such as the new library and a new City Hall, the transformation and evolution of our City Centre is well underway.
We are committed to unlocking the potential of all of our Town Centres which is why we launched TownShift, an ideas competition seeking to harness the best approaches from across the province, the country and the world, to building vibrant, dynamic and liveable communities in Cloverdale, Fleetwood, Guildford, Newton, and Semiahmoo.
The City of Surrey is committed to redefining our downtown core, and continues to encourage private sector investment and job creation. By working together we are creating a City Centre that will be second-to-none in the region.
I invite you all to join with us to ensure that the Future Lives Here in Surrey, BC.
Sincerely,
Mayor Dianne Watts.
