Clarington Mayor Adrian Foster has issued the following statement.

“Congratulations to the incoming Mayor and Council of the Municipality of Clarington. As they are formally sworn into office, our community begins a new chapter in local leadership, bringing with it new opportunities, fresh perspectives and important work ahead.

As I reflect on the past four years, I want to extend my sincere thanks to my fellow members of Council for their commitment, dedication, and service to the residents of Clarington. Serving in municipal government is both a privilege and a responsibility, and I am grateful for the time, energy, and thoughtful contributions each member has made to our community.

I also want to recognize and thank Clarington’s staff for their professionalism, hard work, and continued dedication. Their knowledge, commitment, and day-to-day efforts are essential to delivering the services our residents rely on and moving our community forward. The work of Council is made possible through the support and expertise of the people who serve our municipality behind the scenes and on the front lines every day.

To the incoming Mayor and Council, I offer my congratulations and best wishes as you begin your term. There is important work ahead, and I am confident that, working collaboratively with Clarington’s dedicated staff and engaging with our residents, you will continue to build on the progress made and advance the priorities that matter to our community.

Clarington is a growing and evolving community, with tremendous opportunities ahead. While each Council brings its own perspectives and priorities, our shared responsibility remains the same: to make decisions in the best interests of our residents and the future of our municipality.

I have great optimism for what the new Council will accomplish over the next four years. I wish them every success as they take on this important responsibility and continue the work of making Clarington a community we are all proud to call home.”
