M.P.P. Grant Crack starts new job at Queen’s Park
Who will be next year’s warden for the coun Ɵ es?
L’ORIGNAL | Time to think about who will occupy the warden’s chair next year at the counties council table. The tradition is that the warden’s position alternates between the mayors of Prescott and Russell counties each year but it is not an absolute rule. Mayor Jean-Yves Lalonde of Alfred-Plantagenet steps down at the end of November as the warden for the United Counties of Prescott-Russell (UCPR). His successor could be Mayor Marcel Guibord of the City of Clarence-Rockland, Mayor Jean- Paul St-Pierre of Russell Township, or Mayor François Amour of The Nation Municipality, if either of them were willing to step forward as nominees. Or the matter could be left open for any of the current rookie mayors in the counties or one of the two other veteran mayors Gary Barton of Champlain Township or Robert Kirby of East Hawkesbury village to stand as candidates.
Deadline for nominations is Nov. 21. The new warden will be announced at the Dec. 20 inaugural session of the counties council.
TORONTO | The new Member of Provincial Parliament for Glengarry- Prescott-Russell, Grant Crack, was sworn in October 25 during an official ceremony at Queen’s Park. Crack says he pledges to follow retired MPP Jean-Marc Lalonde’s tradition of serving his constituents’ needs, working hard for the region at Queen’s Park, and maintaining integrity. “Mr. Crack is glad to represent all residents
of Glengarry-Prescott-Russell and looks forward to working closely with mayors from each municipality, as well as with MP Pierre Lemieux. This cooperation and hard work will help ensure that our region continues to thrive,” he said in a press release. Crack has opened two offices, one in Rockland at 345 Laurier St., (613-446-4010), one in Hawkesbury at 151 Main St. East (613- 632-2706 ) with a third one to open in Alexandria in the near future.
UCPR budget close to approval
If no major project expenses get added at the last minute, the United Counties of Prescott-Russell could have a new budget ready for next year before this Christmas. Counties council will hold a special morning sitting on Dec. 13 for fi nal review and adoption of its 2012 budget. Administration will present the preliminary budget report during the Nov. 8 committee of the whole session for council review and comment. The fi nal revised budget document will then come before counties council during its Nov. 22 regular session for any last alterations or additions.
