Host Scott Broady sits down with longtime Beaconsfield resident and mayoral candidate Greg Orleski to unpack how the city can evolve without losing what makes it special. The conversation covers growth, fiscal management, transparency at City Hall, densification around transit, and practical ways to fund infrastructure while protecting Beaconsfield's green character and small-town feel.Why Beaconsfield Matters to GregGreg shares why he chose Beaconsfield 25 years ago—nature, fresh air, water access, community spirit, and quality of life—and why those pillars are non-negotiable. His goal is to preserve them while guiding thoughtful, resident-driven change.A Vision for Growth Without Losing Our SoulGreg supports modernizing amenities and creating a vibrant cultural hub near Centennial Park and Lord Reading, while ensuring the park's trees and beach stay intact. He emphasizes projects that enhance community life, keep the village feel, and attract small businesses without turning Beaconsfield into a high-rise city.Fiscal Responsibility and New Revenue PathsWith a primarily residential tax base, Greg outlines a pragmatic approach: optimize city-owned assets like Centennial Hall and the rec center for revenue, aggressively pursue provincial and federal grants with ready-to-execute plans, and use partnerships and shared services with neighboring cities to reduce costs and stretch every dollar further.Transparency, Communication, and TrustGreg argues that communication is the foundation of good governance. He proposes a multi-platform strategy—regular town halls, open Q&As, Zoom sessions, and plain-language updates—so residents understand context before decisions are made. He favors opening caucus discussions to the public whenever legally possible, and clearly explaining any confidentiality limits.Smart Densification, Not High RisesGreg supports low-rise, human-scale housing near transit and key corridors such as St-Charles and Elm. The aim is to create options for right-sizers and young adults who want to stay local, while blending architecture with existing neighborhoods and encouraging mixed-use areas that support walkability and local shops.Safeguards for Development and Lessons LearnedReferencing stalled or problematic projects, Greg stresses early community dialogue, sensible developer conditions, practical and enforceable contracts, and ongoing monitoring. He highlights resilience standards that reflect today's climate realities, so new builds and infrastructure can handle heavier storms and flooding.A Faster, Clearer Path for Homeowners and BuildersGreg wants a permit process that is predictable and time-bound. He suggests clear visual design guides by neighborhood, pre-submission meetings to align before filing, and published review timelines—protecting Beaconsfield's character while reducing costly back-and-forth for residents and contractors.Collaboration That Delivers ResultsDrawing on his nonprofit leadership and coalition-building work in the West Island, Greg explains how shared vision, diverse partners, and grant readiness can unlock ambitious community projects. He believes these same tactics can fund Beaconsfield's recreation upgrades and infrastructure needs sooner, not later.Negotiating the Agglomeration DisputeWith decades of complex litigation experience, Greg favors pursuing negotiated outcomes that bring money back to Beaconsfield earlier—without abandoning the city's claims—so funds can be reinvested into community priorities while avoiding years of uncertainty.Community Engagement Beyond Election SeasonGreg envisions ongoing conversations with residents—online and in person—so participation becomes habitual, not episodic. He wants the city to proactively invite...
