As we enter sewer overflow season (aka fall and winter), I can not help being concerned that the Mayor's budget cuts will stall the progress we've made at separating our sewer system in these last few years

People might think the upcoming Vancouver by-election doesn't matter, because ABC will still control a minimum of 8/11 votes. I disagree!

Do you like the things on this list? They're motions that @christineboyle.bsky.social brought to council during this term alone.

We've covered far too many incidents at this one intersection. At this point, any further delay to improve safety here is deliberate negligence on behalf of the city of Vancouver, mayor Sim, and council.

Another day, another cyclist sent to the hospital after being hit by a driver at Clark and 10th. Still waiting on that promised action from the city.

It's frustrating how opaque active transportation development is within Vancouver.

I really wish Council would bring back a standing committee for transportation. As it stands, any information about the progress of implementing the Active Mobility Plan is just non-existent.

Working on a project in the Southlands and I'm still astounded that the governing policy for development is a document from 1988

Staff report for the Healthy Waters Plan is coming to council tomorrow.

Everything looks pretty good; I'm personally a huge fan of their short term directions for talking CSOs on an accelerated timescale.
