Hello, my name is Lessie Rosa and I'm running for City Council in Co-Quitlam, which has been my home for over 30 years. By profession, I'm an educator with the Vancouver School Board. I've served also on a number of significant boards. I'm a trustee for the BC Teachers Pension Plan, which has assets of over $34 billion. I'm also a director for community savings, and they have assets of over $800 million. I've also served as a secretary treasurer for the Vancouver Elementary Teachers Association, one of the largest in the province. My campaign platform revolves around urban density. As the population increases in Co-Quitlam, I'm very concerned that our services keep pace with population growth. The areas I'm concerned about is seniors, parks and recreation, and infrastructure. I also want to advocate for housing for seniors, families, and singles. I hope you consider me on October 15th. I'd be honored to receive your vote. Thank you very much.
