Your week at City Hall focused on accessibility and home searches
Good morning, Peterborough. Marcus Otonabee-Singh here on the Morning Wire, flowing to you from the Electric City.
Here's the thing about Peterborough: sometimes the biggest currents aren't the ones you see. This past week, we saw advisories for activities around the Otonabee River and Little Lake, reminding us that nature always has a say. But inside City Hall, the flow was a little different.
**Navigating the Currents of Real Estate**
Much of our attention was on the housing market, a perennial topic in our town. We saw:
* Discussions around accessibility in real estate, highlighting the need for a truly inclusive community. * New guidance from the Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) aimed at making the home-buying journey smoother for everyone. * Updates suggesting that your home search might just be getting a little easier, a hopeful ripple in what can often feel like a strong, unyielding current.
It’s about more than just houses; it’s about making sure everyone can find their place on these riverbanks.
This is the Electric City — small town, big current. Let's go.
