City Council Updates

Friends,It's been a while since my last blog. Here are some updates from City Council:West End Transit Terminal RelocationUnfortunately, council voted in favour of the relocation of the west end transit terminal from College Ave. to Hotel Dieu Grace Hospital on Prince Rd. I advocated strongly in favour of keeping the terminal at College Ave but the majority of council did not see it that way.I will continue find ways to help mitigate congestion and speeding on Prince Rd. and work with administration in those efforts. We also need to hold administration to account to install more lighting at the College Ave location as a bus stop will still be there. Black History MuralsCouncil approved the relocation of our Black History Murals (formerly at West Side Foods) to Patterson Park.

City Updates - May 18, 2019

Friends,

I have several updates since my last blog post. Let's get to it.

City Council Meeting (02/04/19) and Upcoming Transit Board Meeting

Friends, City Council last met on February 4th. The agenda was relatively light but of note was the discussion surrounding our audit updates, and Councillor Morrison's Council Question requesting we look at an Auditor General model again. That report will come to council in the near future. On February 20th, the Environment, Transportation & Public Safety Standing Committee meets for the first time. Items 9.1 and 9.2 speak directly to the west end transit terminal relocation. A link to the agenda report is here: https://citywindsor.ca/cityhall/committeesofcouncil/Standing-Committees/Environment-Transportation-and-Public-Safety-Standing-Committee/Pages/Environment-Transportation-and-Public-Safety-Committee-Agenda.aspxIf you would like to speak as a delegate, or alternatively write a letter to the committee expressing your perspective, you can do so by following the guidelines here: https://citywindsor.ca/cityhall/City-Council-Meetings/presentations-and-delegations/Pages/default…
