  1. How about some feedback on the planning forums? How about some feedback on the bicycle strategy - since a letter in the Leader urged all to read the (non public) document? How about feedback on the municipal inspector progress? How about really letting the community know what the hell is going on?

  2. Give me a break anom! the Rosstown planning forum i attended was last night, the draft bicycle strategy is yet to come to council and the community for comment. Regarding the MI councillors are not privy to any ongoing progress or updates.

  3. First meeting was 19th April. Enough time to find out what went on if you didn't attend and/or get a report put out to the public by any councillors who did happen to attend. So council must approve everything before the public sees it? Is that so? Then how about decisions made about cat curfews, extra charges for rubbish bins? Seems like things go to 'council' only when it suits doesn't it?
