Stratford Born
& Raised

I’ve spent more than 40 years as an architect solving problems, managing complex projects and working with people to turn ideas into results. I believe that experience can bring a practical, thoughtful approach to leadership at City Hall.

Stratford has always benefited from visionaries who had the determination to turn ideas into reality. I see that same quality in Rob Ritz. His years of work on the Grand Trunk site demonstrate both his vision for Stratford and his commitment to making it happen. Rob is a man with a plan — and the will to see it through.

On The Issues

Discussing the issues facing Stratford. 

Too many important discussions happen behind closed doors.
Residents who take the time to participate in our democratic process deserve to be treated with respect and dignity.
City Hall should work with residents, not around them.
For a city that works for you.
