Proud of OUR Community

Dear Residents: 

Nearly a year ago today we embarked on a mission to make West Windsor, which is already a great place, even better.  Between local homeowners and residents alike, our small business people, various committees and organizations, and our three levels of government, there are great people doing extraordinary things in our community.  

In order to make our place even better, we set out a plan to share information and begin the dialogue, on a grassroots level, not just among a few neighbourhoods, but across our west-end.  Some of this news may be related to crime while other news may be related to positive developments.  However, one thing is certain, all of this news comes from YOU!  Every blogpost that ends with "Source: West-end Resident" means that it has come from someone who lives in the area other than me.  And I have hundreds of your emails to prove this. 

As we move forward, I want to just say thank you to everyone for contributing to Our West End.  And I want to be clear on one thing, although at times the news we share may seem a bit negative (i.e. house break-ins, etc), it is never intended to blame a particular person, group or organization, but rather it is always intended to make our streets, our neighbourhoods and our west-end a better place.  I think we can all agree that this is an aspiration we all share.  

I am proud of OUR community.  

Sincerely, 
Fabio Costante

October 4th Council Meeting

Hi friends,  I wanted to provide a brief synopsis of today's Council meeting as there are some items of interest to residents in the west-end.  First, I am happy to report that Council unanimously supported my committee motion not to remove the streetlights at Brock and Sandwich and at Campbell and Grove. There was an administrative report recommending the removal of streetlights at these intersections, among others, and Council supported my motion to keep them there considering there are two grade schools close by at each location.  Second, we were supposed to discuss and debate the Legacy Beacon project and the Festival Plaza Canopy project today. Councillor Gignac put forward a motion to defer these items until administration reported back on a comprehensive report looking at these two projects together with the Civic Esplanade project that is set to come forward at some point in the future. I supported this motion because I think it gives us a bigger picture to assess...
