Re-Elect Ian Kuehl to Pembroke City Council
Making Change Happen!
Over the past four years, I have worked hard to bring change to City Hall in an effort to move Pembroke forward. I have not been afraid to ask the hard questions. I have not shied away from holding the City to account. I have not ducked the difficult votes.
While I am thankful and proud of the many accomplishments that I have achieved thus far, we all know that there is still a lot more to do.
I invite you to join me in this campaign for change as we all work together to better our community, invest in our municipality, and make the City of Pembroke the vibrant, safe and strong Heart of the Ottawa Valley that we all want to achieve.
Together, we can make change happen!
- Ian Kuehl

Residents of Pembroke and visitors alike continue to ask how there is no retail location on the beautiful Ottawa River within the city to have a meal or grab a drink at - the time has come to get something built!

Downtown Pembroke
As Pembroke approaches its 200th anniversary, it is time to develop a strategic plan for the Downtown that includes pedestrian-friendly upgrades, ties in the Algonquin Trail, and addresses traffic and parking concerns
