The City’s Public Safety meeting took place on Tuesday evening at the Ma Mow We Tak Friendship Centre.

On City Beat yesterday, Mayor Colleen Smook said there was a good turnout, with many attendees concerned about the vagrancy and loitering issues.

She comments here.

“As one person said during their comments, there is no silver bullets. It’s going to take a lot of people and a lot of organizations and the general public to help us move forward in how we are going to get the problem under control.”  

Smook added that the new Public Safety Committee will meet the third Wednesday of every month at 3pm in the Committee Room at City Hall.

The meetings are open to the public, but if you wish to comment you need to register by filling out the Delegation Request Form by noon on the Wednesday prior to the meeting you wish to attend.
