Randy Goulden has announced she will seek another term on Yorkton Council.
鈥淎fter discussions with my family and employer, I am committed to providing another four years of service to our great community,鈥� Randy Goulden stated in announcing her candidacy for re-election as a city councillor in the civic elections in November.
"I enjoy my work on Yorkton City Council, and I feel there is a lot left to accomplish in our city,鈥� she continued. 鈥淭he term ahead will include major challenges as we deal with the continuing Covid-19 situation and the impact that has had on our residents, businesses and the city operation. I have the experience as both an incumbent councillor and as an active resident and community organizer to meet those challenges.鈥�
City Councillors, she pointed out, need to be aware and mindful of the economic climate while still managing the growth of the city by ensuring that council and administration focuses on core services.
鈥淚 have heard loud and clear from residents that city council must turn its focus to the basics of running a city. I will work diligently to ensure that the citizens of Yorkton continue to receive full value for their tax dollars. I am committed to making decisions that lay solid foundations for the things our community needs and which will have lasting benefits for our community.鈥�
Goulden added she looks forward to continuing her work on behalf of the city as a board member of Municipalities of Saskatchewan (formerly SUMA), the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) and chairing the Western Economic Solutions Taskforce (WEST).
鈥淚 am honored to have represented the residents of Yorkton and want to thank the residents for their continued support,鈥� Goulden said. 鈥淢y sincere hope is that the City of Yorkton will continue to grow and flourish while preserving the prairie values and traditions that make Yorkton home.鈥�
