The meeting will begin with a delegation requesting the City’s bylaw officers be required to only use public transit to get to calls. The delegate, “Bertin”, says this will save money as officers will no longer require vehicles with their associated costs.

On the consent agenda, Committee is being asked to add a residential building at 1 Jones Street in Stoney Creek to the heritage registry. The building was once owned by the Jones, one of Stoney Creek’s earliest families.

Staff are also seeking permission to start the process of selling city property in Pleasant View to the RBG.

Public hearings today include allowing, formally, a dance studio in Westdale at King and Marion, a new 238 unit sub-division in Glanbrook, and a new church in rural Glanbrook.
