Philip Brown Mayor of Charlottetown

CHAMPION FOR
CHARLOTTETOWN

Philip Brown mayor of Charlottetown

I am a life-long resident and champion for Charlottetown.

I was born and raised in downtown Charlottetown. I live with my wife Lori and our children Emma Louise and Alec in the Spring Park area. As an educator, businessman, and former city councillor, I have shown my dedication to Charlottetown in every facet of my life. I will continue to do to so. My goal is to make Charlottetown the best it can be for everyone now, and for future generations.

As your Mayor, I will work tirelessly to address your concerns with creative and fiscally responsible solutions. In particular, I will place emphasis on the following:

First Year in Office

1. ACTION ON AFFORDABLE HOUSING

• Develop municipal policies and incentives like inclusive zoning and Airbnb regulations to promote the development of social and affordable housing.
