Longtime Abbotsford resident and technology professional Jeremy Klix has entered the race for Abbotsford city council.

Klix made the announcement on Thursday (Aug. 27), saying his focus is on innovation, infrastructure, and community investment.

He said his four key priorities are:

• improving bus services and expanding active transportation networks;

• increasing traffic safety measures and local enforcement;

• expanding recreation infrastructure and community centres; and

• growing and preserving urban forests and municipal parks.

“A council functions best when it has a diverse set of skills and experience to draw on,” Klix said.

“I bring deep technical expertise and systems-based problem-solving tools that will directly complement the council table.”

Klix has spent 15 years in the software and technology sector. He has analyzed, planned and developed IT solutions across diverse industries, including agriculture, finance, government, logistics and manufacturing.

“Civic decisions require a bold commitment,” Klix said.”When we identify a need in the community, our solutions should seek to fully maximize the return on our citizens’ investment. By fully committing to solutions, we can ensure no opportunity is left on the table for Abbotsford.”

Klix said he plans to use his technology background to bring an analytical approach to municipal decision-making, “focusing on getting clear, tangible results for local residents.”

Klix graduated from University of the Fraser Valley with a diploma of architectural drafting and a bachelor of computer information systems.

While at UFV, he facilitated supported learning groups and was president of the Computer Information Systems Student Association.

Klix has volunteered as a youth mentor at Archway Community Services and also serves as the moderator of the leadership team at Level Ground Mennonite Church.
