City Council will be talking about housing at its meeting tomorrow,
Monday December 19, starting at 5:30. Fred Clipsham will make a motion
to defer taking a decision on the 1755 Hamilton Street building (the
Black Building) until Council's January meeting.
The Black Building is a 46 unit, low-rent
apartment building in downtown Regina. Recently tenants were
given eviction notices and the property, owned by Westland Properties,
is set to be demolished.
If Fred's motion passes, then we will have a few more weeks to get ourselves organized to oppose the demolition.
We need a full house at the Council meeting. Spread the word.
Also on the agenda:
Heritage designations for the Cornwall Row House, Turgeon International Hostel and the Waddell Residence.
CR11-167: the
results of the Regina Revitalization Initiative’s (RRI) private/public
partnership (P3) study. Council will look to recommend a P3 as a way to
fund a new stadium.
The third recommendation in the report states that council will ask
administration to guide them on the type of stadium they should
pursue through the P3 process.
