Tonight's #CSaan Council meeting should be "interesting" - they'll vote on the #CivicRedevelopment scheme after the March09 fiery & contentious PublicHearing. 🎇🔥🎆
Community consensus seems to indicate Council's plan is deeply unpopular, but they're forging ahead anyway.
#MuniPoli #yyjpoli

An org was warned about issues & 🚀💰costs🚀💰 well in advance of a controversial action.
At the time it felt like the concerns of a knowledgeable group of women were brushed off - because those in charge 'knew better'.🙄
Bittersweet to hear tonight an admission that it didn't work.
