Mehnaz Javed, a community leader and Conservative Party of Surrey candidate for city council, says her priorities are safer neighbourhoods, responsible spending, practical solutions and ensuring Surrey’s rapid growth delivers value for residents.

Her three priorities are safer streets and stronger community policing; taxpayer accountability and responsible municipal spending; and infrastructure that keeps pace with Surrey’s growth. Expanding on spending, Javed said residents work hard for their money and deserve accountability for every tax dollar. She would push for transparent budgeting, stronger spending oversight and clear reporting on municipal priorities and results. She said council should direct resources to essential services, public safety, infrastructure and the needs of a rapidly growing city. Her approach, she said, is to spend responsibly, measure results and keep residents informed.

Javed says she would bring a fresh, practical voice to council, focused on accountability, safer communities, responsible spending and getting results for Surrey residents. Voters can reach her by email at conservative.mjaved@gmail.com.
