About Councillor Bartley

My wife and I have lived in Whitchurch-Stouffville for over 50 years. Marty and I met in this community, married 30 years ago and have enjoyed raising out three daughters in this community.

My background includes a 35 year career spent in the automotive industry. During such time, I have been a member of the GM Elite Guild and continually recognized for my sales performance and my commitment to Elite Customer Service and Total Customer Care. I have built my career on value added service and providing a personal touch for my clients. It is with this same passion that I have served my community as Councillor over the last 8 years.

In my second term as Councillor for Ward 5, I work passionately and tirelessly to earn the respect and be a strong voice for my constituents. I sat on the Planning Committee for the award winning Clippers Complex. supported and helped oversee planning and construction of Fire Station 51, and lent my support to the purchase and retrofitting of the new Whitchurch-Stouffville Municipal Offices. All were sound financial decisions for the Town, and will serve residents well for years to come.

I do not shy away from the 'tough' issues, and enjoy putting my name and hard work behind projects that I feel are fiscally sound, provide solid and long-term developmental planning, and that I feel are in the best interest of the residents of Whitchurch-Stouffville.

Having spent 8 years on the Library Board Committee and the Downtown Working Group(formerly the BIA), I am committed to continuing with these two committees. There is much work to be done in both of these areas. With an expansion planned for the library and seniors centre I will be sure to work diligently to ensure both projects are done with the same standard of care and diligence that I have paid to all other areas in my career.

Extremely proud of what Council has achieved over the last 8 years, I look forward to working with local businesses and residents in the coming years. It will be an opportunity to continue what we have started, complete new projects that have been put in place and reap the benefits of many years of hard work.
