One contact at City Hall for film shoots, festivals, and events, so the people who bring work to Surrey aren't the ones waiting the longest.

One point of contact to guide applicants through the process. Home businesses, renovations, and secondary suites get a 60-day permit lane, with the fee coming back when City Hall misses the clock.

Each zone gets one point of contact at City Hall, to encourage investment and help new local businesses start and grow across the city.

A Waterfront District master plan with phased delivery and public reporting: the quay and riverwalk first, the market and amphitheatre second, and housing with community amenities throughout. The plan includes a public quay, pier, and promenade, a public market, night market, and food hall anchored by hotels, an amphitheatre and civic plaza, a major waterfront park, a signature SURREY landmark, restaurants and new homes, deep-tech office space with a startup incubator, a Surrey Trade Centre, and a Commonwealth Village for Games athletes and future residents.

Each zone gets one point of contact at City Hall, to encourage investment and help new local businesses start and grow across the city.

Support the markets, festivals, and events that bring customers to local main streets.

Under an Imagine Surrey council, the first question on every purchase is whether a Surrey business could do the work.

Who met the mayor, a councillor, or senior staff, about what, and when, searchable by any resident. A council code of conduct will bar members from meeting unregistered lobbyists, with breaches referred to the City's Ethics Commissioner, and we'll ask the province for the power to fine lobbyists who break the rules.

Built with Surrey's schools, unions, training providers, and employers, so someone who grows up here or retrains here can start a career here.

Residents buy local with the card in their pocket, and City Hall buys local with the budget it already has.

Built with Discover Surrey, the Surrey Hotel and Motel Association, and operators as part of a tourism investment-readiness plan. Hotel and attraction projects get the same 180-day clock on rezonings and development permits as housing.

It meets with the mayor and senior staff on a fixed schedule, and its advice is attached to the reports council votes on. When a land-use or major-event decision affects tourism, the staff report will say how.

MRDT won't be used to fill holes in the general budget. Every year, Discover Surrey and City staff will present the MRDT plan and results at an open council meeting, including a line-by-line account of the City's 0.4% share. Any proposed change goes to tourism partners in writing first, with at least 60 days to respond, and renewal work starts well ahead of the April 1, 2029 deadline.

If the 2031 bid can't proceed, Surrey will bid for 2033. A Commonwealth Games bid for 2034 to 2038 would accelerate facilities, transit, and international visibility, with a Commonwealth Village in the Waterfront District.

A year-round home for agriculture, the rodeo, and community events, with the possibility of hosting horse racing again explored as part of any upgrade. The fairgrounds include the existing casino, and gambling will not expand anywhere else in Surrey.

Clear plans, regular drills, and neighbourhood-level readiness, supported by a new Public Information Officer.

No City support for speculative subdivision on farmland. Nearly a third of Surrey is farmland, and an Imagine Surrey council will treat it as infrastructure.

Signals that respond to real-time congestion, funded in the 2027 capital plan. The City tested adaptive signals on 72 Avenue and reported in 2013 that they worked.

BRT 1: Scott Road, Strawberry Hill, and East Newton, converting the R6 RapidBus to full BRT and extending it to 152 Street via 72 Avenue. BRT 2: Surrey Central to Semiahmoo via King George Boulevard and Newton. BRT 3: Surrey Central to Guildford, then down 152 Street through East Newton to Semiahmoo, with a stop serving Highway 10 and a potential branch to Carvolth Exchange.

Planned in consultation with community groups, including HUB Cycling and Movement YVR.

A published Missing Sidewalks Map with annual targets, school and transit routes first, paired with safer crossings and lighting. Repaved sidewalks don't count as new ones, and sidewalks that need repair get it faster.

At seven months the permit is free. Safety and building-code checks are never skipped.

An Imagine Surrey council would have said yes to the 262 homes in Semiahmoo Town Centre. Council's vote cost Surrey $421 million in lost investment for housing. We will ask the next provincial government to restore the 954 homes Surrey lost, and have the sites and approvals ready the day the money returns.

Hubs with improved safety, lighting, and local art.

Funded by the arena land savings and by provincial and federal partners, with the City contributing land. Sites will be chosen with the neighbourhoods with the greatest need, with gyms, program space, and child care, and, where the budget and partners allow, pools, ice arenas, library branches, and specialized playing surfaces.

Staying active and connected shouldn't cost more as you age.

Hubs with improved safety, lighting, and local art.

Half-price at every City recreation program, pool, arena, museum, art gallery, and attraction, starting in the 2027 budget. A senior's annual recreation pass drops from $436 to $218, with discounts applied automatically through the SurreyPass. Seniors shouldn't pay more. They should pay less.

The fastest-growing sports in the region deserve a home. The business case, the partners, and the site publish in year one.

Yes to an arena, no to this deal. Publish the valuation, the private capital, and the appraisal on the current site before any decision, with the business plan and site decision in year one. The savings from not overpaying for land go into three new community centres.

Work with Fraser Health on a hospital that complements the new hospital in Cloverdale and Surrey Memorial Hospital, including specialized care campuses for children and women.

The fastest-growing sports in the region deserve a home. The business case, the partners, and the site publish in year one.

The City brings land, approvals, and a business plan, and Ottawa and Victoria fund the construction. Every quarter, the City will publish three numbers: homes approved, homes built, and homes people can afford.

It applies to homes left empty for most of the year, with exemptions for principal residences, long-term rentals, homes under renovation, and owners in care, at a rate set by council in public and benchmarked to Vancouver's 3% of assessed value. Revenue goes to land for non-profit and co-op homes and to deeper affordability in projects already approved. An Imagine Surrey council will ask the province for the authority in its first 100 days.

At seven months the permit is free. Safety and building-code checks are never skipped.

With covenants that keep the homes affordable for decades.

At least 1,000 affordable homes a year for four years, with supportive and complex-care housing on transit arteries and services on site, built with BC Housing and Fraser Health.

Connect people to wraparound supports so they have somewhere to go.

If inflation runs lower, so does the increase. The math is published every year before council votes.

The fight is over. The bill was $1.28 million.

Working with the Surrey Police Service, the RCMP, CSIS, and regional forces, with dedicated intelligence officers focused on the networks, the money, and the ringleaders, and on shortening the path from threats to arrests to convictions. Extortion is terrorism against working families and small businesses, and Imagine Surrey will work to eliminate it in its first term.

Hotels are often where evacuees end up when fires and floods hit other parts of BC, so that role should be agreed in advance with the province. Visitors will get the same emergency alerts residents get, in the languages Surrey speaks.
