Meet your new city councillor <\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cThe campaign was incredible,\u201d said Vasilios (Bill) Karidogiannis. \u201cI enjoyed going door-to-door, meeting citizens and listening to what they had to say. Many underprivileged residents told me that I was the first politician to come and see them in many years.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s important to sit and listen,\u201d the newly elected Abord \u00e0 Plouffe city councillor told The Suburban.<\/i> \u201cOnce you do, you start to figure out solutions to the problems that they relate.\u201d <\/p>\n

Karidogiannis enlisted the support of the district\u2019s many cultural communities, including Greek, Armenian and Lebanese residents. He is also particularly interested in helping seniors in his district, which the 2011 census revealed has a higher rate of poverty than most of Laval. <\/p>\n

\u201cSnow clearance is an issue,\u201d he said. \u201cMany seniors asked for improvements to city snow crew procedures.\u201d<\/p>\n

City planning and cultural activities are of keen interest to Karidogiannis as well. He has vowed to work to beautify Abord \u00e0 Plouffe\u2019s neglected waterfront, and revitalize the business that line Labelle Blvd. <\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m open and willing to work with all my opponents for the benefit of Abord \u00e0 Plouffe residents,\u201d Karidogiannis concluded. \u201cI\u2019ve already approached several of them. A good idea is a good idea. I\u2019m very open-minded.\u201d<\/p>\n
