Your City Hall wants everyone to have a good home
Good morning, Peterborough. Marcus Otonabee-Singh here on the Morning Wire, flowing to you from the Electric City.
Here's the thing about Peterborough: the currents of civic conversation this week at City Hall, they’ve been all about home. It’s a deep, foundational current, isn't it? The push for accessible housing, the talk about where we all belong.
**Housing on the Mind**
From Monday straight through, the focus has been unwavering. Council discussions revolved around:
* **Affordable housing initiatives:** How do we make sure everyone in our community can find a place that fits their budget? * **Accessibility upgrades:** Ensuring that all our homes, and our city, are truly open to everyone, regardless of ability. * **The river's role:** How our connection to Nogojiwanong, the place at the end of the rapids, shapes our understanding of home.
It's clear that the flow of ideas is strong around making Peterborough a place where everyone has a secure and welcoming space. It’s about more than just buildings; it’s about community, about *miishkwaki*, the red earth that holds us all.
This is the Electric City — small town, big current. Let's go.
