About this episode

This episode covers the latest developments from City Hall, including a new bylaw on clear cutting and updates on the Culligan Water Park construction delay.

In this episode: The latest from City Hall. After unanimous support from Council, a temporary bylaw prohibiting clear cutting is now in effect until the City’s new Official Plan comes into play. In the same meeting, Council votes to explore the creation of a municipal tree conservation incentive program, a new way to protect the city’s tree canopy by rewarding preservation. Also, an update on construction at the Culligan Water Park reveals the project has been delayed, meaning Kingstonians will be going two summers without the facility. Tune in to dive into all of these stories with CFRC’s Broadcast Journalist, Christena Lawrie.
