Developing a commercial base to service the community.

We need to create an environment that will help foster local jobs and bring in commercial tax dollars.   That is why I worked so hard to support the Big Box development at Clappison’s Corners.  Commercial growth is what is needed to take the financial burden off the residential tax base (the right commercial growth). Too many dollars are being spent outside of Flamborough. We can be doing better, and now we will be doing better with over a million square feet of new commercial and retail space, creating between 1200 and 1500 new jobs once the project on the North side of Dundas Street is fully built-out.

Councillor McCarthy brokered a successful resolution to a contentious local business expansion that saw two opposing sides come together in agreement. This agreement resulted in an additional 70 jobs to the area while protecting area residents concerns over quality of life issues.

Residents and business owners now have a successful working relationship which has culminated in the expansion of 70 new jobs for Coreslab. The precast concrete company has been given the approval to build a controversial 47,000 square foot structural plant and a 25,510 square foot wall panel plant, as well as a batch plant to mix concrete.  Residents originally opposed to the expansion expressed numerous concerns, however after working with the owners, the residents saw so many operational improvements along with additional site alterations that they supported the expansion, which resulted in the successful approval in the end.
