@jan_ewilliams @Gillanders_L @KashHeed @ChakAuRichmond @CarolDayRmd Reasons: already complaints from residents above, we have not expanded liquor service hours to 2am when multi floors of residents are above, the business has only been here for a year, not much data to go on. Im not opposed to the business being there or open until 2am.

@BobRansford Hey @BobRansford yes we support local agriculture. We all have work to do, with every land use issue. I ate all my strawberries with my kids, that we bought from the 1st athiana acres market. I attended the annual gathering of the Garden City Conservation Society at the KPU farm

Richmond City Council doesn’t support local agriculture.They allowed the City to shut down a farmers’ market selling locally-grown food to appease apartment dwellers who don’t want their bucolic views over farm fields disrupted by activities. #richmondbc #athianaacres #localagriculture #alr #humanscalelocalagricture #agraarianurbanism #agriculturalurbanism #farmersmarkets #steveston #stevestonbc #localfarming #farmfieldsjustforshow #richmomdcitycouncil #cityofrichmond #mayormalcolmbrodie

@EvanDunfee Nice work! You stopped my other 10 shots with ease. I tried to keep them away from your fast moving feet, hence the top corners. See you next season.

Win and a tie last night. First time in pads in a few years and it wasn’t pretty. Made some decent saves, let in some bad goals, got absolutely sniped by @bogberry. Fun all around.

@CoachDhillon @Richmond_BC Hey I've just heard from Parks staff. A new hoop system and sport surfacing is coming. Information signage will be up soon. The upgrade should be finished in a month or so.

Great points made by Councillor Wolfe! Increasing inequalities is turning more people to increasingly toxic drugs While we should choose to avoid such drugs, many will and we should try our best to keep these members of our community alive

I know what I'll be defending - public privacy, $ impacts, etc. vs the only 4K ultra hi-def camera police-state system on Canadian roads, capturing all faces & plates. Have your say as City Council discuss & vote this Monday Jan.15 7pm #RichmondBC richmond-news.com/local-news/hig…

@aurashakes @NB_Slater @j_mcelroy I've been pleading with our mayor to appoint me to the Mayor's Council, but for reasons he won't. The most he has given me is vice chair of Public Works and Transportation committee. I'm the youngest (41) and probably the most active transit user and advocate for better services.

TransLink has a plan for new rapid bus routes across Metro Vancouver, and in the past few weeks all the municipalities involved have voiced their general support for the plan. Except for one. This week's Metro Matters newsletter. subscriptions.cbc.ca/newsletter_sta…

@j_mcelroy Glad you used my quote, but for context I was 1/3 who voted FOR the BRT. In 5yrs on council I've had no ability to vote on translink priorities for #richmondbc residents. Our mayor does, as member of Mayors Council and Translinks Board. Let's talk about restoring cut services 1st

@erjun_ma Myself and 2 others on Council did vote in favour of BRT and our staff did put forward the recommendation for us to support. Perhaps translink should work with the community to determine the route rather then give one single option to consider

All other municipalities support expanding BRT, all except @Richmond_BC If Council and staff continue the car-dependent status quo into the future, Richmond’s going to fall behind @bogberry @Gillanders_L @billmcnulty2022 @ChakAuRichmond @AndyHobbs976 @CarolDayRmd

@EvanDunfee It's not a question of Bridgeport or Cambie, but both need to have improvements for transit and multi-mode transportation. The fastest way to connect Richmond city centre and metrotown is... Canada Line, R bus (or future light rail) on 41st or 49th and then the Expoline.

@TransLink @MichaelLeoM @CraigCameronWV @bogberry Thanks DA, my question was actually referred to Michael. Im trying to understand his perspective on why he’s against this routing and transit priority measures, so I can better understand what I’m not seeing here.

Watching council reject not only BRT but Rapid Bus is so disheartening. Any environmental commitments made by councillors, any claim of ‘progressiveness’, any utterance of caring about the needs of the neediest in our city are nothing but hollow words. dailyhive.com/vancouver/rich…

@CraigCameronWV @EvanDunfee Richmond's only rep on the Mayor's Counci, and the Translink Board is... Mayor Brodie. I'm all for rapid buses and BRT but I'd like to have some input on priority routes for it, based on what hear from citizens and what I've experienced

@EvanDunfee This is precisely why decisions that have regional implications cannot & should not be made at the local level. Local councils will, almost always, cave to NIMBY opposition. The cumulative effect of these small-minded & short-sighted decisions is an unlivable region @TransLink

@EvanDunfee Agreed. But I Councillor Wolfe also voted to endorse. It will be reflected in the meeting minutes. Mayor assumed wrong when he spoke. The trankslink/City recommendations were mostly great. Council doesn't get to approve the priority list of transportation projects or bus services

@j_mcelroy Well beyond the poor proportions of the bars, this also shows that delegates voted down calling on the BC gov to setup a Wellbeing of Future Generations Act. #presentfailure
