About the Candidate

A neighbour who listens,
a leader who acts

Vaughn Goettler has spent years as an active member of the Niagara-on-the-Lake community. Now he's ready to serve full-time as Lord Mayor — bringing the same dedication, honesty, and care to Town Hall that he brings to every conversation with a neighbour.

Vaughn's Story

Rooted in Niagara-on-the-Lake,
committed to its future

Vaughn Goettler has called Niagara-on-the-Lake home for many years. He has watched this town grow, change, and face new challenges — and he has been there at every step, as a neighbour, a volunteer, and a voice for the people who make this community what it is.

He has seen firsthand how decisions made at Town Hall affect everyday life — from the roads we drive to the businesses we support, from the parks our children play in to the heritage buildings that define our character. And he has seen what happens when those decisions are made without enough input from the people they affect.

That's why Vaughn is running. Not for a title, but for a chance to serve — full-time, fully committed, and fully accountable to every resident of Niagara-on-the-Lake.

"This town deserves a Lord Mayor who shows up every day — not just on election day."
— Vaughn Goettler
