Participate in COVID-19 Pandemic Planning

Join in Mayor Todd Kasenberg's Agriculture Community Teleconference (with North Perth CAO Kriss Snell and Community Development Coordinator Kim Kowch) on Thursday, April 9, 2020 from 3-4 p.m. Access the teleconference by phoning 519-418-6338 or (toll-free) 1-855-727-6338, and when asked for a meeting code, enter 4593285. 

The Details

As Mayor, I want to assure you that the Municipality of North Perth is effectively responding to the challenges posed by COVID-19. We are working to support all sectors of economic endeavour, and recognize that agriculture has a pre-eminent place at our table.  We are concerned about the stresses you are facing and will face in this very atypical situation.

I want you to know that we are thinking broadly about the challenges that lie ahead for our agriculture community. I find myself drawn to concerns about cash flow, contingency planning, labour availability and organizational sustainability. I believe we all need to be resilient and flexible. Please know that the Municipality of North Perth is striving to be flexible, to respond if we can to needs, and that like so many, our “traditional roles” are less important than doing what is right to help all get through this successfully.

The changes we’ve made in municipal operations reflect advice received from the Medical Officer of Health for Perth County and the Province of Ontario. We’re looking at this COVID-19 Response period as a time that marries caution with compassion, and hope you have the commitment and flexibility to a similar posture. Our community’s greatness is our connectedness and caring.

Agriculture Sector Teleconference Call

I’d like to invite you to participate in one of two teleconferences for the agriculture sector in our community to discuss your needs, concerns, and best ideas. While a part of the Municipality’s staff is currently working on initiatives to contain the spread potential, it is the job of the Mayor and the CAO to also watch a further horizon – namely, recovery from this period. I want to be sure to provide you with good updates about where things sit, and start collecting information about best practices, collaboration opportunities, and ideas that will support minimizing impacts of these societal changes on farming.

Please join North Perth CAO Kriss Snell, Community Development Coordinator Kim Kowch, and myself this  for up to 60 minutes, at Thursday, April 9th from 3-4 p.m. Call 519-418-6338 OR (toll-free) 1-855-727-6338, and when asked for a meeting code, enter 4593285.

We anticipate that some of you may appreciate ongoing teleconference support – just to talk to other farmers, and have the ear of your Municipality – so depending on response to these calls, we may set up a pattern of them for the duration of the pandemic action period.

Kindness Counts!

We are here for you! These are the moments of character. I encourage kindness.

We will continue, collectively through our caring and thoughtful responses, to be North Perth Proud! And – in what was a succinct message I took from one wise speaker – “Wash your hands. Call your people.”
