Byron Villager October 2025

Thank you for being so engaged and caring in our community, from the ideas you share, the events you attend, and the way you look out for each other. I’m looking forward to seeing you around town this October — at an event, market, or just enjoying the autumn colours together. Contact me at: mayor@london.ca with your comments or questions, or follow along on your favourite social media platform.

Message from the Mayor Mayor Josh Morgan mayor@london.ca 519-661-4920 Hello Byron, October’s here! Crisp air, turning leaves, warm lights glowing earlier in the evening. It’s time for neighbourly chats over warm drinks, for the fun of pumpkin patches, Halloween costumes, and enjoying all the fall colours around Springbank Park. It’s those simple moments that remind us why Byron is such a great place to live. I’m pleased to share some updates from

City Hall with a focus on the upcoming budget announcement later this month. In it, you’ll see real tax savings thanks to some of the changes I’ve pushed for to support Londoners and your bottom line— with one of the more notable impacts being my efforts to have the responsibility of backfilling development charge exemptions removed from municipal responsibility across Ontario. We’ve also directed public bodies like the London Police Service to find efficiencies and savings, and I’m proud to share that Chief Truong and his team returned with a $1.5 million reduction to their operating budget. I want to thank the LPS, Library Board and many others for their work to help us all keep taxes more affordable without cutting necessary services.

Building your financial future – together
