City Hall

ShareBy John Swartz Orillia Council meets early Monday November 18 at 12:30 p.m. because they have a Public Meeting on

Terry Fox Circle repaving, $515K (from reserves). This will repave the circle and expand the roadway nearest the water to allow barriers between traffic and the trail.

Staff expect the take to go up by $675K and say new revenue from tickets resulting from speed cameras will make up $500K of that.

Since the system was changed, the aver age of councillors has gone down considerably, and well below age 65.

Staff say capital spending is going down considerably from previous years to $43.9 million for 109 projects.

Ms. Jackson’s last day with the City will be at the end of the year.

The results of the survey will be presented to Council for consideration in early 2025.

On the whole, having a strategy is long overdue even if it is not perfect – it never will be perfect.
