Public can take part in newly formed committee aimed at targeting issues across the City

“Council has heard clearly from residents that social issues affecting the city – the downtown in particular – are a matter of immediate concern,” says Mayor Hall. “This new committee is in direct response to that public feedback and the input of the business community, which is why the makeup of the committee is going to feature representatives from the general public, the business community, and many of the organizations with a direct stake in the outcome. Council encourages residents who are interested and feel they are qualified to put their names forward to be part of the committee.”
