Candidate for Ward 3 CouncillorBradford West Gwillimbury

About Rahmat
Rahmat Mansoor has spent the past decade putting down roots in Bradford West Gwillimbury: coaching local youth sport, volunteering with community associations, and sitting in the public gallery at council meetings long before deciding to run for one of the seats.
Rahmat's family moved to Bradford West Gwillimbury looking for the same thing most families here were looking for: a place with room to grow, close enough to the city to work, far enough from it to belong to something. A decade later that is still the best description of what this town is, and what it risks losing if growth is managed carelessly.
That close-up view of Town Hall is what turned an interested resident into a candidate. Too many decisions about growth, traffic and services get made without enough input from the people who actually live with the results. By the time most residents hear about a change on their street, the useful moment to weigh in has already passed.
This town gave my family a place to belong. I'm running so the next family that moves here finds a council that's still listening.
Why I'm running
Bradford West Gwillimbury is going to keep growing whether or not this council plans for it well. The only real question is whether the roads, the pipes, the parks and the schools arrive with the houses or a decade behind them.
I am running because Ward 3 needs someone at that table who reads the whole report, asks what it costs the people already here, and then explains the answer plainly.
