July’s meeting of the Guelph Police Services Board promises to be relatively light compared to the last few months (or for the months to come for that matter). Still, if you’re interested in crime busting matters beyond the role of the police, this should be a compelling meeting with a special guest appearance, and there also might be some interesting developments from the Chief’s report. Here’s the deal… Continue reading “MEETING PREVIEW: Guelph Police Services Board for July 18, 2024”
No summer vacation (yet?) for Heritage Guelph, it turns out that there’s just too much heritage stuff going on. At this meeting, there’s more heritage to preserve, more approvals to send to council, and there’s also a construction project at one of Guelph’s most well-known heritage buildings (although it’s likely one that you’ve never been to). Here’s the July work load for Heritage Guelph…. Continue reading “MEETING PREVIEW: Heritage Guelph Meeting for July 8, 2024”
In their last meeting before summer vacation, the Guelph Public Library Board is going to have a lot of ground to cover. There will be follow up about previous reports on the work needed to update the various branches along with some of the usual monthly reports, and there will also be new information about the end of the yer financials and programming matters. And just in time for a little summer day dreaming, the board will look to the year 2029! Continue reading “MEETING PREVIEW: Guelph Public Library Board for June 24, 2024”
The time is here again for the monthly Guelph Police Services Board meeting and the agenda this June is focused on yearly reports. Having said, perhaps the biggest report is missing from the agenda even though we’re all going to see it in the very near future so consider this a sneak preview. In other news, we will get an update on human resources, plus there will be a report about a growing and sickening area of criminality. Continue reading “MEETING PREVIEW: Guelph Police Services Board for June 20, 2024”
We get a change of venue at this month’s Transit Advisory Committee meeting.

The Accessibility Advisory Committee is back on its regular schedule in June with a well-rounded selection of topics. Committee will follow up on some work they began this time last year, and then they will follow-up on some action items from a few months ago (hope you like some discussion about bus chimes). Also, more feedback will be sought about some of the upcoming ways of getting around town. Continue reading “MEETING PREVIEW: Accessibility Advisory Committee for June 18, 2024”
There were already thoughts about the June meeting of the Joint Social Services and Land Ambulance Committee in May when a housing matter came to Guelph City Council for discussion. Now in the realm of the County of Wellington, Temporary Structured Encampments will get further discussion, but will it get any further direction? Also, it’s just one of several housing related items on this last agenda before summer vacation. Continue reading “MEETING PREVIEW: Joint Social Services and Land Ambulance Committee Meeting for June 12, 2024”
There are no new delegations on the agenda for this month’s Heritage Guelph meeting, but there’s a lot of background work to do. There’s a new member of the committee to get orientated, there’s a matter of a wall along the river, there’s a permit application to move a heritage building, and there’s a new cultural heritage value report to set the stage for a future designation. This is what’s on the agenda for June…

You’ve made it to the end of May, which means that you’ve made it to the monthly Guelph Public Library Board of Directors meeting. All hands will be there at the community space on the second floor of the main library to talk about the usual slate of issues like the budget, library use and the new building update, but there’s some other stuff in the works this month about the whole library system and the under appreciated services of the library. Continue reading “MEETING PREVIEW: Guelph Public Library Board for May 27, 2024”
As we head to the end of the month, we get to our monthly meeting of the Grand River Conservation Authority membership board meeting. Nothing terribly Guelph-centric on the agenda for May, but there are more regulation and legislative changes to talk about that effect all us, plus there’s the monthly financial updates and a couple of new construction tenders to give out. Here’s the preview… Continue reading “MEETING PREVIEW: Grand River Conservation Membership Meeting for May 24, 2024”
