I chose Aurora for my family

Rocco Morsillo has proudly called Aurora home since 2003, when he and his wife, Tina, chose the town for its close-knit community and small-town character. They are raising their two sons here, where family, sports, and community involvement are at the heart of their daily lives.

Rocco is committed to being a strong, thoughtful voice on Council, focused on making decisions that keep Aurora a great place to raise a family, both today and for generations to come. He understands that the choices we make now will shape our community’s future, and he is ready to work hard to ensure that future is a positive one for everyone.

Let's connect and discuss what's important to you.

What people are saying

about Rocco’s character and long standing commitment to the residents

Rocco Morsillo is involved in Aurora.  Together, he and I serve on the town’s Heritage Advisory Committee, sit on the Olde Aurora Ratepayers Association Executive, and lawn bowl at McMahon Park.  He is also Chair of the Induction Committee for the Aurora Sports Hall of Fame.  Rocco is a neighbour, a friend, and a busy guy.

To familiarize himself with current issues, Rocco has been sitting in on council and various committee meetings since mid-2025.  He has delegated at a number of them, as well.  He does his homework and speaks truthfully and thoughtfully, offering insight and possible solutions, yet is open to different perspectives.

Being friendly, approachable, and a good listener, Rocco truly cares about our town and the people who live here.  He is an excellent candidate for the position of Ward 1 Councillor.

I have known Rocco Morsillo for over 20 years. He is a devoted family man and has a genuine heart for helping people. Rocco has gone above and beyond in helping our church. His character and reputation are beyond reproach and he has demonstrated himself to be a leader who is dependable and committed to the good of others and the community. I wholeheartedly commend him without reservation.

It is my pleasure to endorse Rocco Morsillo for the upcoming municipal election in Aurora. Rocco is a dedicated community leader with a strong understanding of fiscal responsibility and budget management. His experience and practical approach position him well to address Aurora’s growth while keeping the community’s best interests at the forefront. What makes Rocco different is his ability to bring people together and focus on practical solutions. He understands the importance of balancing growth, community needs, and long-term planning, while always keeping people at the center of decisions. I have no doubt that Rocco will approach this role with the same dedication and work ethic I’ve seen firsthand. Our community would be in great hands.

I, Rebekah Murdoch, strongly endorse the Aurora Ward 1 candidate, Rocco Morsillo for this upcoming election campaign in the fall of 2026.

I have lived in Aurora for almost 20 years and known Rocco Morsillo for at least 12 of them. I have been fortunate to be a resident who is deeply involved with various businesses, not-for-profits and other community groups.

Over the years I have watched Rocco Morsillo passionately become involved in Aurora at an immediate neighbourhood level as we both live in the Upper Northeast Heritage Quadrant of Aurora, as well as in a more broad-reaching capacity. 

He is always the first to engage in community discussions on various platforms of social media as well as actively being involved in various community organizations and groups. His deep involvement in these groups comes equally from being an actual compassionate community member as well as from a more knowledgeable perspective having his own construction company and post secondary understanding about all the pieces involved in an integrated town and community.

Rocco Morsillo handles all matters that he engages with, in a neutral, respectful manner. I believe this kind of temperament and response in a community is essential for remaining impartial and without the drama that can tend to arise in any level of politics. He responds with intelligence, integrity and open-mindedness, hoping to grasp and explore all angles of a situation that might arise in our own little heritage community neighborhood but also in full town manner.

We’re proud to support Rocco Morsillo for Ward 1 Councillor in Aurora. Rocco is deeply involved in our community, with a strong commitment to volunteering and preserving our local heritage. He’s someone who genuinely cares about Aurora and the people who call it home.

Rocco has become our go-to person for all things related to the Town—whether it’s staying informed about what’s happening or understanding the issues that matter most to residents. He takes the time to listen, stays engaged, and always brings a thoughtful, community-focused perspective.

Aurora would be well served by having Rocco as a strong voice on Council.
