I want to send an e-mail to the mayor and my councillor - there is an election coming up - but I want to make sure that I am clear what position they actually supported.
It sounded like Marsh suggested pretty much exactly what I suggested as a tighter implementation of the by-law standards. City staff didn't seem clear on whether there would be an issue with that or not.
Councillor Gazola also opposed Councillor Galloway-Sealock's motion.
I don't think anyone actually suggested a tighter implementation, there were questions to staff on exactly what the bylaw required, and staff clarified that yes, they only enforce the bylaw after 24 hours of no snow. Staff mentioned that there were changes to the bylaw in previous years (I believe the change was that they would take a complaint before the 24 hours, but not investigate it), but that council declined to adopt further changes.
