Our Mission

RITE Richmond’s mission is to have a presence on City Council  with a clear, honest and strong voice to ensure the public is heard. We will ensure we have democracy for the whole community and this is evident in all decisions.

RITE Richmond will work for the people of Richmond, to provide the highest quality public service and leadership free of external controlling interests and we will:

• Conserve and protect our neighbourhoods and public spaces.
• We will spend your tax dollars ethically and responsibly
• Reduce the need for tax increases by attracting new businesses to Richmond
• Listen to our residents and school district stakeholders with open invitation for continuous consultation

This is our commitment to you.
