They say they are moving decisively on governance reform, and have presented areas they are working on

The mayors of 8 Niagara municipaliities.... Thorold, West Lincoln, Port Colborne, Fort Erie, Grimsby, Pelham and Niagara on the Lake, have sent a letter to Premier Doug Ford with their agenda to modernize government.

They indicate they are moving decisively to address the number of politicians, strengthen efficiency, eliminate duplication, and secure long-term economic growth.

The mayors say they are focusing on establishing one or more Water and Waste water public corporation, reforming regional services to improve savings, also reducing the number of politicians.

They also say the changes reflect what residents have told them directly.
