The City of Courtenay posts all Council meetings online. The presentation and discussion that follows can be found at this link — http://www.courtenayvideo.ca/uploads/media/2015-07-06.html

What followed was a motion on which way to go with the design of Wilemare Ave from 26 St to 17 St. For more than an hour discussion, argument, clarification and finally a vote – defeated – and a new motion and deferment were made. It’s great to see our civil process in action — all that can be found in the video beginning at the 0:58 minute mark up until the 2:00 mark.
