Jagruti Bhatt’s Priority Issues

Small business growth:

Make Brampton business-friendly: streamline approvals, reduce red tape, improve communitcation between the City and business owners

A place to call home:

Speed up development approvals, encouraging legal secondary suites, and secure government funding.

A fairer approach OCCUPANCY C.A.R.E vs RRL:

Move to an Occupancy Care Program that protects safe housing, supports responsible landlords, and respects lawful tenants. Responsible landlords should not be overburdened by one-sided policies, while real violations by landlords, tenants, or occupants must still be addressed through proper enforcement.

Transparency at City Hall:

Clear budget reporting, independent financial reviews, and measurable performance standards for City departments. Reducse waste, improve efficnecny, and ensure taxpayer money is invested well

Community safety:

Building safer neighbourshoods through proactive policiing and community engagement. Greater politce visibility, stronger bylaw enformcenent, improved road safety, and expanded youth and community programs

Support for seniors:

Expanded recreation and wellness programs, improved access to transit and community services, and strong partnerships with healthcare and non-profit organizations

Opportunities for youth:

Expanded skills training, mentorship programs, internships, entreprenurship opportunities, and accessible sports and cultural programs
