The other new mayors will be paying attention to how Horgan treats Surrey. It is a new day and a new government in Surrey. Interesting days ahead...

It turns out that one of the reasons the Mayors Council came up with a 10 Year Vision is so that things wouldn't change between elections and planners could actually plan for the future without having to worry about which government is in place in two years time.
