Port Coquitlam Mayor Greg Moore is seeking a second term in the city's top job, announcing Thursday that he will run for re-election in November's civic election.
Moore said he hopes to build on some of the accomplishments he and council achieved in the last three years, including innovative waste disposal measures, the creation of an environmental strategic plan and investment in city recreation facilities. He also points to the increase in interaction between the municipal government and residents through online social media and web initiatives.

Craig Hodge, a 46-year Coquitlam resident who retired from The Tri-City News in June, announced yesterday he will run for a council seat.
Hodge has also served on the BC Chamber of Commerce, on the city of Coquitlam's traffic calming committee and on the Riverview Lands task force, where he was a provincial appointee and lobbied to keep the 244 acres for mental health services.
