Bryan Petryshyn has announced his campaign for Mayor in the upcoming municipal election.
Petryshyn has lived in Grande Prairie for roughly 20 years, and says one thing he believes needs a big upgrade is the snow removal process.
“I want clean, smooth roads in the fall, and a plowed road in the winter. I shouldn’t need a four-wheel drive to get across the city for work five days out of the week.”
Petryshyn says that out of multiple decision’s were made by last term’s council, the Stonebridge purchase stood out.
“IÂ understand the purpose of why they bought it, but they almost paid double the value for that property.”
Petryshyn says that a big change he has seen in Grande Prairie in the recent years is a continuation of businesses closing, something that he hopes to be able to help stem.
“A big change that I’ve seen is a lot of businesses and industries are almost moving out of town.”
Petryshyn wants the community to know that if he is elected Mayor, you will get the bang for your buck.
“The residents in this city deserve high value for their tax dollar, and that’s what I’m about. I put the needs of other people before my self, and I feel that is a great attribute to go into City Hall.”
The municipal election is slated for October 20th.
