Hello residents of LaSalle,

It has been quite a busy month in the Town of LaSalle. Just last week Members of Council attended the annual Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO) conference in Ottawa.

We had the opportunity to speak to provincial cabinet ministers during the conference. One to the Minister of Sport to share LaSalle’s recreation program success and priorities. The other, is the Parliamentary Assistant to the Minister of Infrastructure. It was an opportunity to talk about future development of LaSalle.
