From the Mayor’s Chair – March 21

Check out the latest version of From the Mayor’s Chair, where I break down the decisions of Council in 3 minutes or less.

Highlights from the March 21 Council meeting include approval of a proposal to make the City’s fire Training Centre available to the Ontario Fire College, which will bring in additional revenues for the City. Council also approved an expansion to the existing Student Transit Pilot Program to include free transit ridership for youth aged 13 and 14, in response to an identified gap between the free transit offered to children up to the age of 12 and the student pass starting at age 14. Council also received an update on the public engagement plan for the Third Crossing project. Next steps for the Third Crossing process include two open houses at the end of April and a special meeting of Council in June at which point Council will be asked to make the decision to build the Third Crossing, or not.
