E3-814 Did a Global News question kill the Park Board?
from Cambie Report · host Matthew Naylor, Ian Bushfield
Council controversies: Brian Montague's integrity commissioner review, Vancouver's rollback on climate action policies, and the city's purchase of an almost completed market rental building. Delayed suicide prevention barriers on Granville Bridge, TransLink's funding crisis, and the debate over Vancouver's view cones. Cities try to meet the deadline to pass multiplex bylaws, except West Vancouver. City council and the park board battle over bike lanes in the West End. And we dig into a heavily redacted FOI on when Ken Sim decided to move to abolish the Park Board.Links01:57 Integrity Commissioner Review05:05 Climate Action Report and Natural Gas Debate09:47 Granville Bridge Suicide Barriers Delayed (see also re debris)Vancouver to get new dedicated bus lanes on these key routes13:43 TransLink Funding Crisis and Potential Cuts21:08 View Cones Debate26:43 City Purchases Market Rental Building30:36 Ken Sim's Quick Fix for Kits Pool33:37 Bike Lane Battle: Park Board vs. Council36:06 FOI Requests and Park Board AbolishmentFOI fight43:01 Provincial Housing Compliance and West Vancouver's Defiance45:55 Surrey's Push for a City Charter48:33 NIMBYs Oppose New Fire Station50:56 Vancouver's New Sign and Historical Homages53:45 Farewell to AM 730 Traffic RadioOutro audio credit: TikTok @unCOUVER
