MANDATE AND PURPOSE

Dear friends and neighbours, It has been an eventful year. In 2025, federal and provincial elections, along with broader shifts in the United States, created real economic uncertainty that is being felt here in Guelph, particularly in Ward 6 across the Hanlon Creek Business Park. With rising costs affecting local employers such as DENSO and Linamar, my focus at Council has been to prioritize affordability and service delivery for residents, particularly where decisions were within Council’s direct control.

During the 2026 budget process, I advocated for fiscal discipline within areas of Council’s authority and ensured that was properly reflected in my votes. I also supported practical policies throughout the year such as our affordable housing tax incentives and value for money reviews across core services. I remained mindful that many residents and small businesses are already stretched, and that Council decisions should reflect those realities.

Under the leadership of our CAO, the organization has also undergone restructuring to sharpen its focus on core service delivery during this economic climate.

Several long-term projects progressed this year, including the South End Community Centre, which is scheduled for completion in fall 2026. I also welcomed Councillor Katherine Hauser and supported her onboarding to ensure continuity in Ward 6 representation and casework.

At the Grand River Conservation Authority, the City and GRCA announced a partnership long in the making to begin rehabilitation efforts for the trails, woodlot, and open spaces on the Niska Lands, which remain heavily polluted from the old Kortright Waterfowl Park operations. This is a file I have remained closely involved in, and I am encouraged by the steady progress being made this term to secure long term stewardship efforts.

Councillor Chew 2025 Annual Report

Within the community, I have remained active in strengthening connections with the University of Guelph through town and gown initiatives and ongoing involvement with the School of Environmental Design and Rural Development, my alma mater.

We are fortunate to have one of the most reputable rural planning and design programs in the country here in Guelph. Stronger relationships between our institutions and the community will create long-term value for the city and requires continued relational initiative from staff, faculty, and community leaders.

One of the most positive partnerships this past year has been the revitalization of the Rutherford Conservatory. Through collaboration between heritage staff and landscape architecture students, a design competition was initiated to help shape the future commemorative plaza.

Lastly, it is always a pleasure to support local events across South Guelph, from Kortright Hills to Clairfields. This year, I’ve seen more resident-led initiatives and have enjoyed helping organize and support them. One highlight was handing out gelato with Councillor Hauser and reconnecting with many of you at Orin Reid Park.

As we move into the final year of this Council term, my focus remains on maintaining stability within the organization, providing strong casework support and maintaining effective, reliable service delivery. Thank you for your continued trust and engagement. I look forward to connecting with you in the months ahead.

The best is yet to come!

RESPONSIVE REPRESENTATION

Commitment to transparency and clarity These updates over the years are intended to give you a quick impression and a deeper understanding of the work taking place at City Hall. The aggregation of all these writings should give you a better idea of who I am and how I approach consensus leadership at City Hall.

By sharing these reflections regularly, my hope is to help elevate the quality of our conversations, clarify intentions, and encourage a more precise and professional approach to both the policy and operational challenges facing our city. They also offer an important window into the values and priorities guiding how I represent the City.

Please feel free to share them with anyone interested in learning more about the work happening in our community. Your ongoing support and partnership is greatly appreciated.

Annual Reports Published once a year, the annual report brings together the major files, decisions, and community issues that shaped the past twelve months. It provides a broader reflection on the direction of the city and the priorities guiding my work as your councillor.

Progress Reports Published every three months, these reports step back to summarize key policy discussions, neighbourhood issues, and major initiatives that have progressed over the previous quarter.

They provide additional context on the files shaping Ward 6 and the City of Guelph.

FINANCIAL ACCOUNTABILITY

Year round budget monitoring Throughout the year, I made it a priority to closely monitor the City’s operating and capital budgets to ensure decisions reflect responsible stewardship of public resources. With rising costs affecting many households, I remain concerned about the pace of property tax increases and the pressure they place on residents and small businesses.

Federal and provincial pressures continues to be placed on municipalities. At the same time, there are areas of policy development within Council’s control that carry budget implications and must be approached with discipline. Maintaining the balance between necessary services and responsible taxation remains an important part of Council’s responsibility. I also remain concerned that the City’s Tax Operating Contingency Reserve currently sits below the $5 million threshold, which limits the City’s financial flexibility to respond to unexpected pressures.

As Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew has observed, strong public services ultimately depend on a stable economic foundation and responsible financial management. Strong policy must also be workable policy. My focus is ensuring Council decisions remain grounded in practical implementation, responsible budgeting, and long-term sustainability so the City can continue delivering reliable core services for residents.

"The economic horse pulls the social cart."

FINANCIAL ACCOUNTABILITY

Governing with reality in mind Municipal budgeting begins early in the year and gradually takes shape through Council decisions made throughout the year. Under Ontario’s strong mayor framework, the mayor now presents the budget as the signatory and sets the overall tone and direction for the process.

At the same time, a large portion of the City’s budget is already committed before Council begins formal deliberations through infrastructure obligations, long-term capital programs, and negotiated labour agreements. These structural commitments limit how much of the budget can be adjusted in any given year.

Former Singaporean Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew once observed that “moral debates lose meaning when they ignore real world consequences.” In municipal government, this reminder is particularly relevant. For example, early in 2025, while I support the goal of protecting our urban tree canopy, I raised concerns about moving too quickly on a private tree protection bylaw after staff indicated that implementing it could require deferring other planned work. One should ask, why are we establishing policy when it cannot be implemented effectively anytime soon.

"moral debates lose meaning when they ignore real world consequences."

LEE KWAN YEW FOUNDING PRIME MINISTER OF SINGAPORE

016 Councillor Chew 2025 Annual Report

Applying these principles to the City budget My approach has been to evaluate new initiatives through a practical lens of three questions: 1. What is the investment?

2. Who does it serve?

3. Does City staff have the capacity to deliver and execute it well?

Good intentions must ultimately be matched with policies that can be implemented effectively.

In 2025, I held 106+ documented casework-related meetings with residents, stakeholders, and city staff to address neighbourhood issues, development proposals, and community initiatives.

This represents a decrease from 2024, reflecting a more focused effort to ensure meetings lead to clear outcomes and coordinated follow-up. Many of these meetings required extensive preparation and coordination with staff before formal council deliberations.

At the same time, I attended 48 formal Council sessions, including Committee of the Whole, Planning, and City Council meetings, which often required significant preparation and extended deliberation on major policy files affecting the city.

FOCUSED ADVOCACY

University of Guelph Land Use Vision The University of Guelph has released its long-term Real Estate Strategy and Land Use Vision to guide better use of its endowment lands. I participated in the engagement process and emphasized the need for more purpose-built student housing and strong urban design.

This plan focuses on proactive and thoughtful development, while evaluating long-term leases.

The goal is to ease off-campus pressure by better utilizing university-owned endowment lands.

During my conversations with the project team, I emphasized that most of South Guelph is largely made up of first-generation subdivisions, with a built form that is not well-suited to absorbing additional population pressure.

For residents who value the character and stability of our neighbourhoods, this plan provides a pathway to reduce that pressure, while still supporting the long-term success of the university and the city as a whole. As your councillor, I remain committed to helping nurture a strong, collaborative relationship between the City and our University partners.
