The true cost of growth.
Brent Bellamy@brent_bellamy
From my column: This single block of old 2 and 3 storey, mixed-use buildings (Corydon Ave) has the same assessed tax value ($20mil) as this Costco, but it uses 5 times less land (115k sf v. 540k sf) and infrastructure. Which one is better for taxpayers? winnipegfreepress.com/opinion/analys…

@gallowaykelly Congrats Kelly on your successes and the great work that you have undertaken. Take some much deserved time to rest. Hope things are good with you and the fam.

Some personal news - After much thought and consideration I will not be seeking re-election this fall after 16 years on Kitchener council. I will continue to work hard until the term ends in November. See my statement.

If you have to travel:

Car kit. It's a great idea, particularly with this variable winter weather, the unexpected can happen. You may be in your car during an emergency; be sure to have supplies to keep you comfortable. For more info: nsem.ca/get-prepared/y… #NorthVan #WestVan

@Newswriter22 @jmfplan @MunicipalWorld Thanks for having me involved....look forward to the article. Great to see you again.

@jmfplan @MunicipalWorld @SeanGalloway With that build up, I hope I can come through. Haha! I really appreciated your time and it was great to see you and catch up.

Working on a @MunicipalWorld article on the missing middle housing problem and was able to speak with both @jmfplan and @SeanGalloway. Gotta say, nice piece of each interview was spent reminiscing on #LdnOnt days gone by. Fun and informative conversations! #housing #community

Couldn't agree more @jmfplan. This is a really opportunity to plan for a community of the future, an opportunity to decide to build a community based on people. The dollars can be spent on other great initiatives that are designed for people and help our climate. Get involved!

Cities across Canada have declared a #ClimateEmergency but do they really mean it? What happens when its time to make tough decisions? This $***M? road widening is a big test for #ldnont & cancelling it could show its not biz as usual. Decision day Aug 31 bit.ly/3mFVWqx

Exciting update and new policies on climate change, urban centres and equity. Take a look.

We don’t make “outside” for kids the way we used to.

Wouldn’t have happened without your leadership Jesse! Lots of Staff had an important role-@brittohagan Mike Tomazincic, @mlknieriem Andrew Macpherson, Jeff Bruin, Julie Michaud & Art Zuidema come to mind. Really happy things worked out so well!! Old East community led the way!!
Jesse Helmer@jesse_helmer
Making the best of a bad decision to close the school. Thanks to residents and city staff, especially @jmfplan, who had the foresight to recommend buying the property and turning it into a new park #oevldn #ldnont

How many hours after snowfall would a plow clear this road to make car travel safe? That question came to mind as I rode my bike on this scary sand-packed bikelane in April. Rethinking operational priorities/budgets is key to make cycling an attractive mobility option in any city

@LornaDayUD Congrats Lorna! Well done and deserved.

We still too often describe streets as “closed” when cars are removed, instead of calling them OPEN to people.
Does taking away cars make this street seem open or closed to you?

🏞️ Reimagining cities in light of the pandemic, and through the lens of health, we should ask ourselves: What if there were a park over the highway bridging our community back together? #NorthVan
Check out my op-ed where I invite you to imagine what is possible ⬇️
