This week, Council has an opportunity to take a stronger approach to derelict commercial sites. These buildings increase fire risk, create safety hazards, consume a higher amounts of city resources, and hurt local businesses and residents. Options will be discussed this Thursday.

I often joke on the doors that I’m the opposite of a three word slogan politician. I like to provide Edmontonians with full and complete information about issues that matter to you.

I have always loved local government because it’s the level of government closest to people. This election is different. The UCP has introduced party politics into our local elections, with two parties now running - Better Edmonton and PACE. Let’s keep City Hall focused on people, not parties.

This campaign, I attended numerous forums where discussions centred on vitally important topics like community safety and wellbeing, and homelessness - a topic that is deeply important to me. The housing crisis in Edmonton is worsening and we need to see urgent action from all levels of government.

Together, we can build an Edmonton where everyday people can build extraordinary lives. A city where affordability unlocks opportunity, with better transit, safer streets, and housing that’s within reach. Election Day is October 20th. Learn more at ashleysalvador.com.

The absolute easiest endorsement I can make this election season is for @ashleysalvador.bsky.social Truly, Ashley is one of the best councillors we've seen in decades. She's incredibly intelligent, but personable and doesn't condescend. She deftly builds consensus. We need her back.

This is the important work of a city council and municipal government. It's rarely headline-grabbing, but making neighbourhoods safer, block by block, is what it's all about. Ashley is one of the best in North America at understanding this, and making needed change happen in Edmonton.

There are some places where growth just makes sense. This week, Council approved City-led rezonings in five “Priority Growth Areas” that are already well-served by transit, infrastructure, and amenities. A key move for a city growing as rapidly as #yeg. www.ashleysalvador.com/post/priorit...

This is the kind of transformation that Edmonton's new zoning rules can enable. On the left, 1 unit of *old* housing. On the right, 6 units of *brand new* housing. Opportunity for those with less wealth to live near NAIT, LRT, Kingsway Mall, Royal Alex Hospital, and on and on.
