I would like to thank Ward 1 constituents who in August sent me an alert and video of the heavy truck problem on Grandview St N. Happy to report that my motion below was approved last week at Council for no heavy trucks on Grandview St N. The vote first passed 4 in favour 2 against at Community Services committee Sept 20 (Councillors Gray and Marks voting No) but then at Council Sept 26 it was passed uncontested under the Consent Agenda. Hopefully you will see the No Heavy Trucks signs installed soon.
"Whereas heavy trucks have become a problem on Grandview Street North with the massive infrastructure and new home construction happening north of Conlin Road; and,
Whereas it has become a safety concern with school opening this September;
Now therefore be it resolved that the City make Grandview Street North between Taunton Road East and Conlin Road East, a No Heavy Vehicle restricted road section at the earliest possible time."
