Message from the CAO

It is my privilege and pleasure to be in the role of CAO for the Town of Gravenhurst and provide the administrative oversight and support that comes with such a position.

Gravenhurst has a host of exciting projects and strategies underway that will guide the Town into a more connected, communicative, vibrant, and sustainable community. Over the past 10+ years here in Gravenhurst (17 in Muskoka), I have experienced it evolve into such a dynamic Town, and with so many opportunities before us, it is imperative that we continue with our perspective on sustainable/responsible growth, and that we support a collaborative and transparent relationship between Council, Administration, and the community.  This will ensure we realize our true potential, while preserving what has made the Town great. 

I am grateful to work alongside a deeply committed Senior Leadership Team, that with all our staff, works tirelessly to fulfil the direction of Council and ensures that our corporate priorities are met. Together, with our community, we continue to shape Gravenhurst to be a connected, engaged, and innovative Town, positioned to provide our residents, businesses, and future generations with a rich quality of life.

The greatest values are realized when we work together as a community. Community leadership and participation is crucial for Gravenhurst to successfully build upon its strong foundation. Together, we will ensure that Gravenhurst continues to plan for, and meet, the evolving needs of our residents now and into the future.

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about our community, and I hope you enjoy all that our Town has to offer.

Sincerely,

Scott Lucas

Chief Administrative Officer
