I am your City of Winnipeg representative and liaison to city issues for residents who live in the Waverley West Ward.

I have organized the website into neighbourhood specific issues, and larger priority issues BUT I also highly suggest you enter key words into the search engine (top right side on navigation bar) to find information. You can always contact me directly if you have any questions: jlukes@winnipeg.ca
