R.M. of Morris Reeve Ralph Groening will seek re-election in this year's municipal vote in October.

"I have decided, after discussions with my wife, that I will let my name stand for the position of reeve in the election this fall," said Groening.

If successful, this would be Groening's third term. Groening said he'd like to continue work on the RM's major projects.

"I would like to continue, especially in economic development. We have two industrial parks that need work, and to expand and promote them more aggressively and effectively."

Groening also wants to provide better high speed Internet to residents and businesses. "That's another high priority," he said.

"We also have the expansion of the Rosenort lagoon that has to take place in the next couple years, and we'd like to expand into the Aubigny area if at all possible," he added.

Construction of the Rosenort fire hall will be completed soon, and Groening looks forward to seeing this project completed.
