News Updates

Friends,

I have a few news updates to share.

Parks and Pools

As you may know, Atkinson Pool will no longer be an item for discussion at City Council.  This is great news.

Several residents have contacted me regarding South Tilston Park.  It has been decided by many that a public meeting at this time will not be beneficial.  I have been working diligently on this issue and have had several discussions with our Councillor and others about this as well.  Please do not hesitate to get in touch should you have any questions or concerns.  It is our hope that South Tilston receives the same good news as Atkinson Pool did recently.

Positive News

I have just found out some very positive news today regarding an initiative that I have been working on for several years in the west-end.  There will be a public press conference regarding this great news in the near future.  Until then, I cannot say much, other then the fact that this positive development will play a leading role in making the west-end a better place to live, work and play.

Small Business in the West-End 

Over the past few weeks I have met with several small business owners in the west-end.  We discussed challenges and opportunities in the area and I have listened carefully to their thoughts and ideas.  Pictured below is me with Jameel Asghar from a Copy/Print place on Partington right off of Wyandotte St. W. and below that picture is me with Mohamed El-Mosri, Owner of Pizza Plus on Felix Ave.

Huron Church Road Closure

Friends, please know that I've been dedicating every hour of every day communicating and relaying the concerns of residents and businesses to the Police, the Mayor's office, and the leadership team at City Hall regarding the ongoing national security situation along Huron Church Rd. Three very recent updates that I'd like to share are the following:  Residents in Sandwich Town taking the Central 3 will be offered free bus passes during this temporary closure; The intersection at Industrial and Northwood has been opened for east/west traffic; and Emergency Services (Fire and Ambulance) will not be delayed or affected by this closure.
