“I have come to recognize the significant responsibility I have towards my family’s own transformational growth years,” he said.
In a release, the city said that under Burley’s leadership, Morden has experienced unprecedented transformation and significant growth and emerged as a beacon of progress in the region. “His unwavering commitment to the city and his visionary approach have played a pivotal role in shaping Morden’s future.”
