Burlington residents deserve the facts from their Mayor! Residents and businesses pay a price when all they get is political spin.
"Has councils three-year delay to restart the Waterfront Hotel study resulted in a missed opportunity for the city and residents to influence the outcome?"

"Did Mayor Meed Ward, who has served as mayor or councillor for 11 years, not understand the implications of council decisions that she worked for, or did she simply want to avoid inconvenient facts?" local-news.ca/2021/11/15/pro…
Lets hope this mayor and council can learn something from past experience, put their political ambitions aside, do what's best for the city, and save taxpayers a lot of money. local-news.ca/2021/10/29/les…
Burlington Waterfront @BurlWaterfront · 3m Remember back in 2019 when council told us they delivered the lowest tax increase in a decade ? Looks like the same council may deliver the highest tax increase in a decade.

How unfortunate, the mayor tried to politicize this vote by only providing part of the story and indirectly shaming councillors who disagree with her. Is this the same person who campaigned on rebuilding trust, collaboration and civility on council ?

Inclusionary zoning can be a good thing but, imagine finding out that the unit you are looking at will cost more than you originally thought to subsidize the cost of building affordable, below-market units in the same building! thestar.com/life/homes/opi…
If only Pete, (the mayors husband) would have enlightened us that during the previous election all the Gazette post supporting the mayor and discrediting the previous council weren't credible and likely out and out falsehoods.
Hope the region is doing a water quality test this week. The last test they list was Wed. June 2, probably before this mess washed-up.

Inappropriate but no surprize, it's the Burlington Gazette.

11K Followers 4K Following Husband, Father, Chartered Life Underwriter, Certified Financial Planner - Former Mayor of Burlington 2010-2018I said earlier this year that the big hoopla about moving the Urban Growth Centre to the Burlington GO wouldn't change a thing. We're still going to get high rise development downtown #BurlON #onpoli #the905
'No acknowledgement of our community's voice': This giant and controversial development in downtown #Burlington has just been approved and Mayor @MariannMeedWard and many others are not happy: torstar.co/1F4R50GAFiZ
I have to ask, if the City felt that a 29 story building would be damaging to the community, why on earth would it attempt to argue that a 22 story building would be acceptable? In terms of impact to neighbours, there is insignificant difference between those two outcomes. 1/n

Wonder what happened to that sentiment ‘we’re in this together’? Perhaps, if the province had been viewed as a whole and tough measures put in place in October, Christmas 2020 would have much better for business... because that’s what is important to politicians.
Mayors in #Oakville and #BurlON along with #MiltonON and #HaltonHills against GTA-wide COVID-19 lockdown, saying Halton 'should not be punished for the health conditions in other regions' insidehalton.com/news-story/102…
Kitchener is looking forward. And they’ve got @_rosabustamante to help deliver that vision.
Can I ask why Kitchener a city of less than 250,000 people is getting investments in transit and looking to attract investment and employment while #HamOnt with nearly 600,000 people has its opportunities squandered? kitchener.ctvnews.ca/video?clipId=2…
Well done Dave! Congrats!
David Lazenby takes over as @BrockvilleFire chief on Monday. bit.ly/3ktHUnK
Last night I went through the @cityburlington proposed Cycling Plan (2019). It does a great job of explaining weaknesses of the network, the lack of connection, or quality of existing onroad bike lanes and the near complete lack of any cycling infrastructure at intersections.
@pete_ward_ @cityburlington I get what you are saying; however, if the rate of growth for car infrastructure outstrips that of cycling, pedestrian and transit and it is urban sprawl over downtown development then that is an anti urban set of policies and the mayor is ultimately responsible.
The event turned out well. Number of cars surpassed expectations.
What a great event.....job well organized and done by the Rotary Club.... and the community support is just outstanding.... Happy Canada Day Burlington!
Solidarity March, Thursday June 4th, 5pm to 7pm. New St at Walkers to City Hall. A COVID safe walk by number of young people may be help us gain perspective on how they would like see their future. Based on what we have seen in the United States, we should all be out marching.
Sad to hear Chief Lazenby is no longer with the City. I had the opportunity to meet him on a few occasions and was always impressed with his professionalism.
BREAKING NEWS: We are learning the #Burlington fire chief is suddenly no longer employed with the city. Here's what we know so far: torstar.co/B7tR50zRDIT

@BurlWaterfront @BuildBetterSts FYI: protected bike lanes along the Waterfront have just been cleared of debris. A great alternative to using the waterfront trail when out on your 🚲 Thanks @cityburlington for cleaning it up. @STRCycling
@BurlWaterfront Let’s clean the debris(gravel, cigarette butts, dead animals) out of the bike lanes in front of the hospital, so they are viable options for cyclists along the waterfront! And maybe some signage, so drivers stick to the speed limit! @BuildBetterSts
@SamCraggsCBC I would respond the same way if I came home from a walk and found that on my window.
@BurlingtonGazet I believe a reply from the Mayor, to the points raised by Mr Calvert, is needed to clear the air. The points raised have created much uncertainty & suspicion. It's now up to the Mayor to deliver answers that are satisfactory to all of Burlington's citizens.
@pete_ward_ Hey @pete_ward_ check out what the campaign is all about. Not only are you supporting a local business when you purchase a T-shirt - a gift card is being purchased directly from #BurlON shops. Stay well!
Thank you to everyone who has already supported the #Neighbours4Neighbours campaign. First round of orders were delivered today. Check out shoplocal.blackrobot.ca to learn how you can help #SmallBusiness while supporting your #community. #ShopLocal #BeKind
@stolte4ward4 @BurlWaterfront This is a very important time in our history & words do matter. Firstly, 31 landowners appealed, not just developers. Secondly, there are appeals of both the OPA & the ZBA. Appeals of the OPA are unrelated to the extension of the ICBL. Please do not perpetuate the Mayor's myth.
