PRINCE GEORGE — Veteran city councillor Susan Scott is once again putting her name on the ballot, seeking a fourth term on Prince George City Council.

First elected in 2014, Scott has spent more than a decade at City Hall and says she remains optimistic about the city’s future despite ongoing challenges. She believes Prince George is poised for growth and opportunity in the years ahead.

“I’m strongly determined that Prince George is on the brink of more, and we are going to be doing amazing things in this city,” Scott said. “I know there’s a lot of frustration, and I know this isn’t going to be an easy process, but we will all do the best we can.”

Throughout her time on council, Scott has served on several municipal and regional committees, including the Select Committee on Citizen Recognition Program, the Municipal Finance Authority and the Intergovernmental Affairs Committee.

Scott says her campaign is centred on three key priorities: the economy, public safety and support for seniors. She has been a vocal advocate for seniors both locally and provincially and says continued work is needed to ensure their concerns are addressed.

On public safety, Scott says progress has been made through partnerships with organizations such as Downtown Prince George and the Prince George Chamber of Commerce, while emphasizing the importance of listening to residents.

She also believes issues such as homelessness, mental health, addiction and criminal activity should not be viewed as a single problem.

“People in those areas deserve the assistance that they need,” Scott said. “They deserve the opportunity to become functioning members of our community.”

If elected this fall, Scott will begin her fourth consecutive term on council.
