Dear Ontario Residents,
As your current mayor, I am proud of all that we have accomplished together. Ontario is thriving, and I am excited about the continued growth and potential of our community. As I seek your support for reelection, I am committed to building upon our progress, ensuring a brighter future for every one of you.
One of my top priorities for the next term is the completion of the Ontario Aquatic Center, including a brand-new pool and a vibrant splash pad. This facility will provide a safe, fun space for families, youth, and people of all ages to gather, exercise, and enjoy each other’s company. Our community deserves a state-of-the-art aquatic facility, and I will continue working to make this dream a reality. By investing in our recreational infrastructure, we will also attract visitors and boost local tourism—helping to support our local economy.
In addition to improving our recreational offerings, I am committed to taking proactive measures to maximize our tax benefits. By focusing on both property tax management and business incentives, we can ensure a sustainable future for Ontario while keeping the burden light on residents. Through partnerships with local businesses and organizations, we will continue strengthening our services and departments, ensuring that we have the resources needed to support growth and keep Ontario flourishing.
I believe in Ontario’s future—and with your continued trust, we will build on our successes, create new opportunities, and make this city even better for the generations to come.
I look forward to serving as your mayor once again, and together, we will keep pushing Ontario forward.
Thank you for your support!
Sincerely,
Deborah Folden
Mayor of Ontario, Oregon
