"Downtowns and modest old neighborhoods often subsidize sprawling, wealthy #suburbs that don't come close to covering their own costs. In many cases, the poor #subsidize the rich, and it's by design. This video examines how we got here, why the bill is now coming due." US analysis, but it's here in #yeg too. Thanks for the lead, @michaeljanz.bsky.social

We’ll be savouring them while they last this year but we wish it wasn’t just a delay.. 😒 Pedestrians on Whyte Ave deserve safe and convenient crossings, permanently.

New city administration report and proposal on multi-tenant homes aka lodging homes, including some stuff on short-term rentals.
"There's no evidence to suggest there's an issue, but because some people made up some shit, it's regulation time"
What are we even doing here? #yegcc -

I'm sorry, what?
#yegcc administration admits they have no idea how many parking spaces the city is responsible for, yet they collect parking fees on them?
This is ridiculous. Janz is right, how many summer students is it going to take to figure out vehicle storage?
We've got the number of picnic tables and how many trees we have and how many bear fruit in Edmonton but we don't have an inventory of parking?

Why is it that remote city councillors aren't on video during meetings?
We had problems with this with the last council. How is this still an issue?
We have members of the public who have their cameras on.

Wîhkwêntôwin already works. The final neighbourhood renewal design doesn’t reflect that. You can help fix that. Read about how the current draft steps back on safety, year-round bike infrastructure, and people-first design — and how it can still be fixed. buff.ly/z3grOto #yegbike #yegcc

Three Days at City Hall, One Big Question: Who Can Move Safely in Edmonton? This week, #yegcc committees will make decisions that sound technical but have real-world impacts on safety, accessibility, and mobility, especially in winter. Here’s what’s happening: buff.ly/aXlmrRG #yegbike #yeg

What a perfect example of when densification works.
Being able to age in place and help solve the housing crisis and the loneliness crisis at the same time. It brings us back to the days when communities really were this local.

The source of the problem is that EPS has the enthusiastic support of the province, and the UCP have repeatedly waded in to discipline the ‘wayward’ woke Edmonton city council on policing matters.
#yegcc even tried to ‘defund’ the police (by not *increasing* the budget back in 2021, gasp!) and the province panicked and used their bully powers to force the increase anyway.

The City is taking feedback on their Climate Action Plan. They recently told council about how far behind they already have fallen in achieving their goals, and it's not hard to see why. Climate Change is an existential threat, and we need meaningful action now. #yegcc #yegbike buff.ly/b64HsKo

$22.9 million bears questioning, and I expect Councillor Teng and Councillor Rutherford to ask these questions.
At the end of the day, these fire stations drive down home insurance costs for residents. They need to be built but at a cost overrun of $22.9 million? What's going on here?

#yegBike report: Cool but calm; inversion is still lingering and particulates along with it. 😷
Streets and paths mostly clear, a few icy patches but got by without studs another morning.
Avoid the path along the ski hill, though; snow machines are going full bore and creating accumulations. They are sweeping it a couple times a day, but it's hit and miss when.
Funicular is running, but elevator still down. Time to write #yegCC again.
Frazilpans are gloming.

It's not just 31 deaths, it's countless injuries that could have been deaths, it's countless near misses. Something's gotta give.

At Edmonton City Hall this afternoon for the Holodomor Ceremony - a combination of solemn religious service and defiant celebration of Ukrainian resilience. With Ukraine once again under Russian threat, the memorial has a powerful resonance. #yeg #Edmonton #Ukraine #Holodomor #yegcc #Alberta #Canada #cdnpoli

Edmonton's municipal election shows that all of the folks complaining about bike lanes existing in Facebook comments sections are either nowhere near as numerous as they present themselves, or the sorts of folks who can't be bothered to vote. #yegcc
