Floreat Grimsby In Medio Horti
We received word this morning of a last-minute, yet VERY IMPORTANT meeting regarding West Lincoln Memorial Hospital. With the Board of Hamilton Health Sciences (HHS) set to soon vote on what they wish to do with WLMH, residents need to be loud and clear we want to keep our hospital.
Niagara This Week just published an interesting article on West Lincoln Memorial Hospital, arising out of discussions that took place at the recent AMO (Association of Municipalities of Ontario) conference in Ottawa. The West Niagara delegation was quite strong in their demands for a WLMH re-built/new hospital.
As a follow-up post to Friday’s “GO Train Update & Council Agenda Raises Questions“, we did some digging to try and get a better feel of the latest Metrolinx press release on GO in Niagara and the “information explicitly supplied in confidence” to the Town. It seems there is something significant on the table, what that is will be interesting to find out.
Nothing to do this Saturday night? Well come on down… downtown that is, where Main Street will be closed for a Summer Street Party to raise support for West Lincoln Memorial Hospital.
Freshly re-elected Niagara West MPP Sam Oosterhoff isn’t resting up after a busy provincial election, but rather he is out making good on his campaign promises. One of those is to keep West Lincoln Memorial Hospital on the maps of Premier Ford’s newly formed government at Queen’s Park.

As a follow-up to our post on the proposed Aleafia licensed cannabis production facility in Grimsby, we came across some articles from Allan Benner of The St. Catharine’s Standard. They may shatter the myths held by some that these operations don’t give off strong odours and are easily contained.
DeSantis Homes and their planners have released some more information on their 4-storey downtown condo proposal. The proposal will be up for a public meeting on May 29th where you can ask questions or add your comments to the developer and Town Planning staff.
For the residents of Grimsby, they wanted to make sure the developer of Century Condos downtown heard their messages “loud and clear” on the proposed development. From what News Now is reporting, it seems at least on the issue of height and heritage, the developer is going back to the drawing board for 4-storeys.
Thanks to all those who participated in our Easter Gift Certificate Giveaway! We had many entries with great comments and suggestions.

Hope everyone had a safe and happy long weekend!
Richard Hutton of Niagara This Week just posted his article on last night’s Open House on “Century Condos”. If you could not make it, it is worth the read to get a feel for the “room” that was Council Chambers on Tuesday evening.
We will have our own notes up of the meeting shortly.
