Message from the Mayor Mayor Josh Morgan mayor@london.ca 519-661-4920 Hello Riverbend, As the last leaves fall and we prepare to hang up our rakes and haul out the snow shovels, I want to take a moment to connect with you about what’s happening here at City Hall and across our great city. This time of year always reminds me of how much pride Londoners take in their communities. Whether it’s a neighbour helping with yard work, volunteers
We’re also keeping a close eye on neighbourhood infrastructure, such as roads, sidewalks, and parks, to ensure they’re safe and well-maintained for the cold. I’ve had the pleasure of attending several local events, business gatherings, and important community conferences recently, and I want to thank everyone for their engagement and questions during the Q&A sessions I’ve held. I continue to be inspired by the energy and ideas that residents share. From conversations about housing and safety to new parks and local improvements, your voices are the core of our work shaping London’s future. As we move toward the holiday season, I encourage everyone to take time to enjoy what makes this city great—our trails dressed in autumn colours, local markets full of seasonal favourites, and the warmth of community gatherings. Wishing you and your loved ones a safe, happy, and peaceful November. Josh
organizing food drives and local events, or families getting ready for the holiday season, it’s those acts of kindness that make London such a special place to call home. I want to give a special shout-out to everyone who participated in London Food Bank’s fall collection, which exceeded expectations and featured a $85,000 donation from a single donor. The way Londoners step up for each other is unlike any other city and I’m grateful to everyone who gives freely of their time to make our city a better place. Over at City Hall, our mission is the same, and Council is busy preparing for the winter months ahead by ensuring our snow- clearing teams are ready to go and our most vulnerable residents have the support and shelter they need as temperatures drop.
