Burlington’s 150th anniversary to ‘lay the foundation for the next generation,’ says mayor

The mayor of Burlington, Ont., says an upcoming milestone for the city is a launching point to build the city for the next 150 years.

Marianne Meed Ward says the city’s anniversary in 2023 will look back at past Indigenous teachings to provide a potential roadmap for the future development of its community centres, facilities and parks to serve the next seven generations in the municipality. “They are under high demand and we need to do more for our growing communities,” Meed Ward told 900 CHML’s“It’s a huge challenge, but it’s also an incredible opportunity to lay the foundation for the next generation and build something for people who will never know our names.”

Prior to becoming the city of Burlington in 1974, the villages of Wellington Square and Port Nelson merged to become the village of Burlington in 1873 before expanding to become the town of Burlington in 1914.
