- (She named these two city-wide projects as her priorities rather than a separate second item.)
Two changes to improve City services
- Modernize internal systems and reporting so councillors and residents no longer have to chase departments for answers; she points to the “all-for-one” planning pilot, which she says cut average application times by about 60 days, as a model to spread.
- Make project reporting transparent: she plans to move a motion requiring quarterly cost and timeline reporting on every capital project over $250,000.

- Finish the Ward 3 parks plan: the reconstruction of Powell Park and the new Brightside Park.
- Revitalize Barton Street and other commercial corridors with a strategic plan across city divisions; she says staff have already been directed to begin it.
