Mayor privileged to serve

September 16, 2014 · 0 Comments

I would like to extend my heartfelt appreciation to the residents of King for placing their faith in me and allowing me the privilege of serving as your Mayor for the next four years.
I sought re-election because I truly love this job, and I want to build on the long list of accomplishments over the past term.
We now have strong, forward-looking plans and strategies in place, including our Economic Development Strategy, Parks, Recreation and Culture Master Plan, Museum strategy, and of course our guiding Sustainability Plan. Over the last term, our reserves have grown from $13 million to $37 million and we are paying down our debt. Our council is the envy of York Region and I am very proud of our entire Township team.
I love King and I promise to do everything in my power as Mayor to make sure we succeed together.
I work for you and with you. I will continue to engage the public and I encourage everyone to attend public events and our Meet the Mayor and Councillor nights, a tradition I will continue. I am always happy to stop by to meet you and discuss your concerns.
King Township has an impressive history and a bright future that we will create together.
Once again, thank you all. It is my privilege to serve.

Mayor Steve Pellegrini

The King Township Food Bank (KTFB) is facing an alarming rise in demand for its services, and the organization is calling on the community for urgent support to continue meeting the growing needs of local families. Since its founding in 2004, the food bank has been a vital resource for residents struggling to put food on the table. Despite King Township’s reputation as a wealthy area, food insecurity has long been a reality for many, particularly lower-income families, rural workers, and seniors on fixed incomes. This year, the need has skyrocketed, with the food bank reporting a 66% increase in individuals served since the beginning of 2023.
