@RoySahm12 The job of Mayor(at least in New West) doesn't get any pension.

As I ride off into the sunset, I leave with a lot of wonderful memories and a hope that I have helped contribute something positive to this city that I love. For some this may be goodbye, but for others, if it is meant to be our paths with cross again.

Love

Jonathan

@TransLink helped me check off one of my bucket list experiences this morning with an opportunity to be an honorary Captain of the SeaBus for a few minutes. It was as awesome as I thought it would be!

I’m pleased to share that the City has received $26M by selling our British Columbia Low Carbon Fuel Standard (BC LCFS) credits. These funds will allow us to establish a new Climate Action Reserve Fund to support Climate Action initiatives. #newwest https://t.co/K7epdL42sB

We celebrated the City’s Animal Services Officer Margie Fox yesterday as she was named Officer of the Year by the Licence Inspectors' and Bylaw Officers' Association of British Columbia (LIBOA).
Congrats Margie!

I’m stepping back from social media these days, but good news is worth sharing and the team @New_Westminster deserves recognition for the "Excellence in Planning Policy Gold Award" for the City’s 7 Bold Steps for Climate Action that was presented at @CIP_ICU Conference last week.
