Sigmund Lee
Candidate for Richmond Hill Council – Ward 2
A Better Future for Richmond Hill
Practical leadership you can trust
Residents are being asked to pay more. Richmond Hill deserves better value, stronger oversight, and clear results from City Hall.
As a long-time Richmond Hill resident, I have seen how these decisions affect everyday life in our community.
A consultant report commissioned by the City warned that Richmond Hill may face property tax increases of 6 to 7 percent annually.
Who is watching costs at City Hall?
What I’m Hearing from Residents
- Traffic keeps getting worse.
- Taxes continue rising, but people expect better results.
- Growth needs to match infrastructure, roads, and services.
- Residents want to be heard before decisions are made.
My professional background includes experience in auditing, finance, and corporate restructuring, including work as part of a team that helped turn around a financially distressed company into a financially stable and successful company.
That experience reinforced the importance of accountability, careful financial oversight, and disciplined decision-making.
I am running to bring practical leadership, responsible decision-making, and accountable representation to Ward 2.
