Who is Caroline Matthews?

Police Officer, Business Owner.... Caroline shares her life experiences that have prepared her well for the role of city councillor.

 

Housing

As your city councillor in Ward Metis, I will stand for safe streets and an end to social disorder.

 

Rezoning

Let's end one-size-fits-all planning!  It's eroding our neighbourhoods.   

 

Seniors

Seniors should be valued in our communities, not pushed aside. They should not be overlooked in the city's planning decisions.

 

Neighbourhood Renewal Projects - Example: Ottewell

Neighbourhood renewal projects should enhance communities, and not create costly disruptive changes.

 

Taxes

City Hall has lost touch. I will support that tax dollars provide value and we focus on the priorities like snow removal, safety.  We need accountability and transparency.

 

Six Storey Mid Block Infill. Gentle Infill??

This is an infill Councillor Salvadore approved.  It's 6 storeys high in the middle of the block of single homes with no parking. Gentle infill?

 

There's a huge row housing complex that's been sitting empty & boarded up for some time.  Is this the "competent, thoughtful decision-making" that comes from Councillor Salvadore??

Meanwhile infill is rapidly destroying the mature, established neighbourhoods all around it and the rest of the city...

 

This is such a shame. Why was it allowed to happen? 

A beautiful, mature neighbourhood full of ranch style single family homes until these 3 monster infills were built. The community is not against infill but we need to give them their voices back. 

 

When it comes to safety and policing, we have two expert candidates on our Better Edmonton team, including Caroline. 

Caroline is a former police office who worked in Vancouver's eastside. As the city councillor for Ward Metis, she will bring a balanced and experienced voice to help our city with the mental supports we need to address issues and prevent social issues such as homelessness, poverty, and substance abuse.
