Floreat Grimsby In Medio Horti
Phelps was taken by surprise that the Planning Committee wasn’t happy with the development’s interior street dead-ends that won’t accommodate regional waste pickup.
After six years of discussions, why was it only at a public meeting that the Planning department made such recommendations and effectively sent the developer back to the drawing board?
Interesting read in the Hamilton Spectator on urban development and building heights.

Interesting read on how Hamilton has a principled approach to development. Proper checks and balances help avoid a “feeding frenzy” when it comes to growth.

Budget
It’s budget time and draft “asks” are being circulated by the various committees. Read the posted committee agendas and find out where your tax dollars are proposed to be spent. Better yet, come to the Committee meetings (they’re open to the public) and hear the discussion – – a lot more is said than gets printed in the minutes.
