No Parking Signs going up around Allison Park

I just got a call from Councilor Scott Duvall whom is our representative at City Hall for us being in Ward 7.

He regrets to inform me that due to an on-going neighbourhood dispute, that " No-Parking" signs will be going up around Allison Park.

These signs will make it illegal to park Monday to Saturday from approx 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Be sure to check the signs for the exact times and dates when they go up.

The unfortunate thing is that nothing can be done to stop this.

The signs will start to go up with a 1 -2 week period, so be forewarned so that you dont get a ticket.

More meetings at City Hall

Last night I spent a further 3 hours at City Hall going over different projects,ideas and problem solving surrounding various things in the City.

One of our topics was graffiti, which I have discussed before and what we can do about it.

One of the attendees made me aware of a product that can remove the offending marking, and I am going to acquire some of it to remove the writings on our mailboxes.

Allison Park the Jewel of Hamilton

5 hours of meetings, 1 breakfast, 1 lunch and we still did not finish.

Yes that is how I spent a majority of my time yesterday, at City Hall going over many of the different programs in the City.

Needless to say the City is using Allison Park as the " example" and poster child for others to follow, some exciting things are coming up, and I will fill you all in later.
