CANDIDATE FOR REGIONAL COUNCILLOR

Richard Park

Using a sports analogy, we need to win games at home and away to succeed. That’s why I’m running for Regional Councillor. My focus is three-fold: (i) master our local finances to protect taxpayers, quality of services and infrastructure, (ii) advocate fiercely at the regional table to build up our reputation as a credible partner and secure our fair share, and (iii) collaborate closely with dedicated staff and community leaders who bring the vision to life, Council cannot do it alone.

Why I’m Running

Hi everyone, my name is Richard Park and one of the greatest decisions I've made in my life is moving my family to Port Perry and Scugog.

I have lived in downtown Port Perry since 2020 and have had the privilege of serving this community since 2017 as a member of the Old Flame Brewing Company.

Through helping build both my family and brewery, I have gotten to know this community through the lens of a father (Charlie and Henri's Dad), business partner (Old Flame), coach (Prince Albert Basketball Club), volunteer (In Training for Scugog Fire Recruit Class 26-03) and most importantly a neighbor.

I have crossed paths with incredible people throughout this community and it is for them I put my hand up to serve.

MY PRIORITIES

The Issues That Matter Most

  • My 1st Priority

    Fiscal Responsibility and Sustainability.

    We must master our finances at home by ensuring a comprehensive and exhaustive understanding of our local budget tools and levers, protecting our taxpayers, quality of services, and maintaining the infrastructure our rural community relies on.

  • My 2nd Priority

    Regional Advocacy & Partnership.

    We need to advocate fiercely at the Regional table, representing Scugog’s unique identity to our partners at higher levels of government to build our reputation, secure our fair share, and ensure we are never treated as an afterthought.

  • My 3rd Priority

    Local Collaboration & Partnership.

    We must empower the people on the ground by working collaboratively alongside our dedicated municipal staff and community leaders who actually bring our vision to life, because Council cannot do it alone.
