Ward 5, from the lakeshore to Dundas.
Ward 5 stretches from the shore of Lake Ontario north toward Dundas Street, including mature neighbourhoods, parks, schools, local businesses, community spaces, and key corridors. It is a part of Burlington where people stay, where neighbours arrive, and where families put down roots.
Key Areas: Lakeshore, Elizabeth Gardens, Pinedale, Sheldon Creek, The Orchard, and neighbourhoods between Appleby Line and Burloak Drive, north of the lake and south of Dundas Street.

Ward 5 issues, from the lakeshore toward Dundas Street.
Streets, Sidewalks and Traffic
Parks, Trees and the Lakeshore
Resurfacing plans, sidewalk infill, school-zone safety, and traffic calming on the residential streets that need it most. If you have a problem on your block, email me. That’s still the fastest way it gets fixed. Resurfacing, sidewalk links, school-zone safety, traffic calming, and day-to-day road maintenance matter because they shape how people move through the ward every day.
Ward 5’s parks and shoreline are part of why people choose to live here. I’ll keep advocating for tree replacement, park renewal, and access to the lake that respects the environment and the people who live nearby. Ward 5’s parks, tree canopy, and lake access are part of why people choose to live here. I will continue to advocate for renewal, maintenance, tree replacement, and access to public spaces that serve residents well.
Development on the Corridors
Schools, Seniors and Community
Where Ward 5 meets the City’s main corridors, we will see new housing. I’ll keep pushing for development that is appropriately scaled, well-served by transit, and accountable for the infrastructure load it adds. As new development comes to our corridors, the focus must be on responsible planning, infrastructure, traffic, amenities, and community benefit — not growth without regard for what already exists. Finally, we must find a way to reduce peak-hour traffic congestion.
From parents at school drop-off to seniors who want to age in their homes, Ward 5’s people are the file. I’ll keep showing up at the residents’ associations, the community events, and the kitchen-table conversations that this job is really about. From school drop-off safety to seniors’ services and local gathering places, Ward 5 residents need practical attention to the places and routines that shape daily life Plus, we need a transit system designed to serve all community members who need it.
