City Planners To Shift Their Attention To West Side

Now that the Plan SJ exercise on developing a new municipal plan for the city is drawing to a close, city planners want to embark on a new venture which is being called the Golden Mile Corridor on the west side along Fairville Boulevard.

Chief City Planner Ken Forrest would like a plan on that be ready for Common Council next summer.

Meantime, Peter McGuire is urging his fellow common councillors to support what he's calling a strong financial investment on roads in the city during their budget deliberations.

McGuire has sent a letter to Council pointing to the results of the citizens survey which shows the condition of roads to be the one of the most significant issue of concern for Saint Johnners and the level of satisfaction is declining.
