THIS WEEK IN EDMONTON

  • There is no Council meeting this week but there are several committee meetings. Today at 9:30 am, the Community and Public Services Committee will meet to discuss the City’s anti-racism strategy. On Tuesday at 9:30 am, the Urban Planning Committee is meeting to hear several reports. Topics include mass transit, the Bike Plan Implementation Guide, and the ETS Fleet Storage and Maintenance Facility Project.
  • The last meeting of the week will take place on Wednesday with the Executive Committee scheduled to meet at 9:30 am. Taxation is on the agenda, with several items set to be discussed including an adjustment to residential tax classifications, and overdue and uncollectible taxes.
  • The Provincial Government announced a repeal of the mask mandate for K-12 students. Chair of the Edmonton Public School Board, Trisha Estabrooks, expressed frustration with not being consulted about the policy. Apparently, the Edmonton Public School Board would like to keep COVID-19 policies in place forever?
