It’s the end of the month again, and that means it’s time for the regular meeting of city council. It may look like a short agenda, but looks can be deceiving, and this could be a long night with the return to the topic of downtown patios. Plus, there will be an additional motion that might see our local council back the near universal request to establish province-wide universal sick days. Continue reading “City Council Preview – What’s on the Agenda for the March 29 Meeting?”
In a special meeting of city council, there’s only one topic to be discussed, and that’s city council itself.

So what changes are being proposed? Continue reading “City Council Preview – What’s on the Agenda for the March 22 Meeting?”

All in a month’s work. Continue reading “This Month at Council: Investing, Parkview, and Mail-In Ballots”

In terms of council work, March is coming in like a lion! Continue reading “Committee of the Whole Preview – What’s on the Agenda for the March 1 Meeting?”
By the time we get here it will have been a busy month at (virtual) city council, so we have a nice, easy regular meeting where most of the action seems to be contained to the closed session. Everything else will re-run what we saw before at Committee of the Whole unless there’s some late, breaking council business.
