Your City Hall is still talking about housing and it's a lot
Saskatoon — seven bridges, two rivers, and something happening you haven't heard about yet. My darlings, this past week at City Hall, it felt like they were trying to fix all our problems with one magic wand!
Okay, so this is actually wild. Housing, housing, housing – that's all anyone could talk about, from the River Landing to Confederation Park. It's like they've finally realized that people need somewhere to sleep that isn't under the Broadway Bridge!
This week’s main events:
* **Affordable Housing Debates:** Lots of passionate speeches, not always a lot of action. It's like watching a really long, beautiful sermon where you just want them to say "Amen!" already. * **Zoning Changes:** They're trying to make it easier to build more homes, which is good, abi? But the arguments about it? *Omo!* You'd think they were trying to build a new airport in someone's backyard. * **The "UNKNOWN" Drama:** Still a bit of mystery there, lingering like a harmattan haze. We're keeping our eyes peeled!
Saskatoon is a city that will invite you to a farm-to-table dinner and then make you defend the concept of a city for twenty minutes. But we keep moving forward, even if it's one committee meeting at a time.
