Michael Carroll

Candidate for Councillor Ward 2

In their own words

This candidate hasn’t listed a campaign website or social account with the Town. That says nothing about them as a candidate — it just means less of their material is published online for us to summarise.

Where they stand

Every candidate in this race is shown against the same 16 issues, in the same order, whether or not we’ve found something for each one. Why we do it this way.

Housing

Will I be able to afford to live here?

Carroll says growth must be responsible: are roads, infrastructure, emergency services and policing keeping up?

  • Ward 2 is growing; questions whether roads, infrastructure, emergency services and policing keep up.
  • Growth must be responsible; spending accountable; residents must have a voice.

Taxes & spending

What happens to my tax bill, and where does the money go?

Carroll says every tax dollar belongs to the taxpayer; City Hall must show where money goes before asking families for more.

  • Every tax dollar belongs to the taxpayer.
  • Before asking families to pay more, City Hall should show where the money is going.
  • Better planning, stronger oversight, transparent procurement, fewer costly surprises.

Roads & infrastructure

Will the things I use every day actually get fixed?

Carroll wants evidence-based safer streets: speeding, dangerous intersections, collisions and congestion tackled with local knowledge.

  • Concerns: speeding, dangerous intersections, recurring collisions, traffic congestion.
  • Safer streets need evidence, local knowledge and action, not one-size-fits-all solutions.

Economy

Will our main streets and local jobs thrive?

Carroll wants red tape reduced, better City Hall communication, and small-business owners to have a voice.

  • Reduce unnecessary red tape for local businesses.
  • Improve communication with City Hall.
  • Ensure small business owners have a voice in decisions that affect them.
