Mayor Dave Barrow delivered his 2019 State of the City Address at the Richmond Hill Board of Trade Mayor’s Luncheon and Member Showcase this afternoon. 

This year’s address focused on how Richmond Hill is continuing to grow and evolve, including by developing new partnerships to benefit our residents and businesses, supporting innovation, improving our efficiency and accountability as a service provider and building up our thriving community.

“I have personally watched Richmond Hill grow into a vibrant, dynamic, welcoming community, rich in culture and optimal for business,” said Mayor Barrow. “We have become a place of diverse economic growth, of innovation and of community. We are sophisticated, competitive and truly deserving of being called a City – a change that we believe will create new opportunities. And while we can be proud knowing we have built a solid foundation, we must always be planning for the future.”
