City Council Roundup: Nov 6

Global warming and urban growth. These two topics were explored in the latest city council meeting in New Westminster when a proposal from Councillors Nakagawa and Fontaine to plan for a citywide rollout of public drinking fountains was discussed. Who knew something so simple sounding could be so contentious? 

Then, delegates from the community bring up several issues caused by construction sites in the city. With growth comes pain, and the question of how to solve it is explored by council.
