New Brunswick Municipal Elections 2008

Larry Estabrooks, Moncton Real Estate: Real Estate Agent in Moncton, NB

Once every four years New Brunswick citizens residing in municipalities and local service districts of various sizes exercise their right to vote by choosing local leaders. These leaders enact zoning bylaws, set rates for property taxes and enact local legislation, all of which affect property owners. Of course there are often other issues, but municipal spending is the one that impacts property owners directly.

In our general area about 65% of all households own the property in which they live. So what would one expect to be a reasonable percentage of eligible voters who took the time to vote? It varies widely, as you can see below.

CANADA: Saint John is Growing!!!

Ann-Marie Clements Luxury Homes Realtor Saint John, Quispamsis, & Grand Bay: Real Estate Agent in Saint John, NB

Welcome to Saint John, New Brunswick, CANADA!!! Where people are very friendly and transitioning from blue collar work to high skilled labor & technically advanced market. The area around Saint John is beginning to flourish, especially the Kennebasis Valley, Milledgeville and the River Valley area of Grand Bay-Westfield. WHY? The unlimited resources of minerals and the wonderful scenic hills of continous granite lined streets and waterways. This is an untapped market, getting ready to boom. My vision of the future, is continual job and economic growth, cultural diversification, with a "green" environment. With an increasily "green" environmental future, with the harbour cleanup initiative, this will become one of the greatest harbours on the eastern seaboard. With the building of a clean, environmentally friendly new technology oil refinery and the greenhouse free electrical output of the LePreau Generating Station and potential development of "wave energy" conversion technology, Saint Johners are looking to our children's future.
