I am proud and excited to announce my candidacy for Langley City Mayor. The past four years on City Council and previous eight years as the Langley City Community Police Office Coordinator has helped me understand the complexities of municipal government including its limitations and capabilities. Balancing fiscal responsibility with sound judgement is key. By building safe growth inspired communities and providing services and facilities for healthy living we will strengthen our community foundations. We need to continue to focus on transportation, revitalization, and social issues and to collaborate with other levels of government, community partners, and local businesses. By refreshing playgrounds, parks, nature trails, creating dog parks and community gardens we will provide positive spaces to foster positive relationships. My goal is to continue the great work and success of the past but to bring new ideas forward for an ever-changing City. I represent not only those who speak loudly and often, but also those whose voices are not readily heard. I believe Langley City is an amazing place and I want to continue its progress and make sure residents are proud of where they live. I will remain dedicated and work hard with staff and Council to provide the public the level of service that is expected.
Thank you in advance for your encouragement and support. Feel free to contact me at val4citymayor@gmail.com. Please remember to get out and vote this October.
Thank you,
Val van den Broek
