This Week at City Hall


Twice the Planning Commission fun this week, kids. Me, I'm off to Newfoundland, so enjoy!

Monday, June 8

Regina Planning Commission (4:00 PM): Six condo conversions are being considered today: 15 Barr Street, 125 Froom Crescent, 1235 Grace Street, 4303 Rae Street, 230 E Broadway Avenue and 2620 5th Ave N. If you're new to the condo conversion issue, there's a write up in the current prairie dog about them. Plus, you can peruse the Dog Blog coverage here, here, here, here, here, and here. Word on the street is that these will be the last condo conversions for the time being. I'll double check that and get back to you.

Wedesday, June 10
Regina Planning Commission (4:00 PM): Looking at a bylaw amendment for the Tuxedo Park subdivision.... TUXEDO PARK??? Classy! I am so moving there! Also, the library extension for the Core neighbourhood centre is being looked at as well as a daycare and humanitarian service facility on Athol Street.

Oh, RPC will also be looking at (and likely approving) a new apartment building on Quance Street. Seems the far east end of the city is where low and middle income renters displaced by condo conversions are expected to move. I hear the views of the prairie (and the boxstores) are very nice.

As always, you can find complete meeting agendas and reports on the city website.

Don't let them wreck anything while I'm gone. See you in a week.
