It’s been a long two months since the last time the Transit Advisory Committee met, and the start of the new year seems to be bringing a lot of changes to regular order. At this meeting, the first one of 2025, we will meet some new staff members, hear about some fare changes and talk about all kinds of other transit businesses that might come up. Let’s get into what we do know about this meeting with the preview of the agenda! Continue reading “MEETING PREVIEW: Transit Advisory Committee Meeting for January 16, 2025” →

Wellington County gets the early bird worm with the first meeting of 2025 (at least from a Guelph point of interest). After skipping December, the Joint Social Services and Land Ambulance Committee gets together to calibrate for a new year with a look at the 2025 budget, changes to funding for childcare, and the latest updates about housing and social services. So let’s dig into the agenda of the first meeting of this new year! Continue reading “MEETING PREVIEW: Joint Social Services and Land Ambulance Committee Meeting for January 8, 2025” →

MEETING PREVIEW: Heritage Guelph Meeting for January 13, 2025

Published on Jan 3, 2025Jan 13, 2025 by Adam A. DonaldsonLeave a comment

Heritage Guelph gets back to work promising a busy 2025 after what was definitely a very busy 2024! No major heritage designations this week, or any complicated fights about demolitions at this meeting (we think). There will be a kind of demolition discussion at this month’s meeting though, and there will be some discussion about the workload ahead, and then we will head downtown for another big project!

MEETING PREVIEW: Accessibility Advisory Committee for December 17, 2024

Published on Dec 12, 2024Dec 16, 2024 by Adam A. DonaldsonLeave a comment

The last meeting of the year goes to the Accessibility Advisory Committee. For this one you should expect a lot of wrap up for the work of 2024 and some teeing up for the work of 2025, but the main point of interest might be seeing what happens in this first meeting after a fairly fractious October meeting where members of the AAC laid down the law, and their concerns, about their own autonomy. So let’s check out what’s on the agenda… Continue reading “MEETING PREVIEW: Accessibility Advisory Committee for December 17, 2024” →

The last Guelph Public Library Board of Directors meeting for 2024 will be focused on the future. Mostly. Hopefully, the board has spent the month sitting with the new direction for the Library for the next four years, because this meeting will once and for all determine the future! (…until 2029.) For everything else, please check out the preview for this November meeting of the Library Board. Continue reading “MEETING PREVIEW: Guelph Public Library Board for November 25, 2024” →

MEETING PREVIEW: Transit Advisory Committee Meeting for November 21, 2024

Published on Nov 15, 2024Nov 18, 2024 by Adam A. DonaldsonLeave a comment

There’s been a lot of talk about Guelph Transit lately between the potential transit worker strike cancelled at the last minute and proposed cuts in the 2025 budget, but things will more or less be ordinary business for this meeting of the Transit Advisory Committee. Or perhaps we should say “ordinary for now” because the committee will talk about its potential future along with some of the usual matters.

MEETING PREVIEW: Heritage Guelph Meeting for November 4, 2024

Published on Oct 25, 2024Nov 3, 2024 by Adam A. DonaldsonLeave a comment

It’s going to be a busy slate for the Heritage Guelph meeting this November with changes, plans, designations, and maybe even a hint of conflict (?). Yes, there are new designations and future designations to consider, as usual, but there’s also the year-long plan to designate as many properties as possible and that massive designation project, the Heritage Conservation District study of the OR Lands. But wait, there’s more… Continue reading “MEETING PREVIEW: Heritage Guelph Meeting for November 4, 2024” →

MEETING PREVIEW: Grand River Conservation Membership Meeting for October 25, 2024

Published on Oct 20, 2024Oct 21, 2024 by Adam A. DonaldsonLeave a comment

October’s meeting of the Grand River Conservation Authority is the usual mixed bag, and the bag will come with a price tag. Budget season is in full bloom (so to speak) with the presentation of the draft budget for 2025, plus there will be follow-ups on the Conservation Areas Strategy and ticketing processes for the Elora Quarry Conservation Area. And since winter is coming, let’s also talk about ice management. Continue reading “MEETING PREVIEW: Grand River Conservation Membership Meeting for October 25, 2024” →
