Provided by Tammy Rampersaud After spending the past five years as a councillor-at-large in Riverview, Tammy Rampersaud is running for mayor in the upcoming municipal elections. Her top priorities are sustainable growth, community engagement along with protection of citizens and the environment. Rampersaud believes the town needs to do more advocating for better police service. “Sometimes it’s just more patrolling and that serves as a deterrent but also a comfort to people. We need to see that here, there needs to be an increased presence for people for many reasons.” In terms of housing, she thinks the town can advocate on behalf of citizens to ensure affordability and she supports rent caps given the recent spike in rents.
