The Morphy Plan
Three pillars for Gravenhurst.
Whether it’s adding ice time for our families or ensuring our Wharf is a world-class destination, the goal is the same: results.
PILLAR ONE
Economic & downtown revitalization
- Launch an urgent “Business Back to Main Street” program.
- Beautify the downtown streetscape.
- Leverage the return of the Northlander train to capture new visitor dollars.
PILLAR TWO
Community infrastructure & recreation
- Prioritize a second ice pad to meet growing demand for hockey, figure skating and family recreation.
- Build dedicated pickleball courts.
- Rebuild the Lookout Point stairs.
PILLAR THREE
Responsible waterfront stewardship
- Protect lake water quality and shoreline with responsive waterfront development.
How this plan gets delivered
“We need a Mayor who moves projects from ‘Idea’ to ‘Implementation’ without bureaucratic delay. I am running to ensure Town Hall works for the residents, delivering the services we need and the growth we deserve.”
