The Bridge Too Far: August 2014

http://bridgetoofarpeterborough.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html

Thursday, 28 August 2014. The Fork in the Road. Last fall, city council approved what is likely the most expensive public works project in Peterborough history. Extension of the Parkway. Right up to the north end of town – and right through Jackson Park. In doing so, councillors ignored the 2003 referendum. On the Parkway in which voters shot down. They also ignored the voices of hundreds of Peterborough citizens. Who came out to speak against the project at public meetings last year. Out of their minds?

The Bridge Too Far: Ashburnham: Practical Progressive Ideas from Fraser and Teleki

http://bridgetoofarpeterborough.blogspot.com/2014/10/ashburnham-practical-progressive-ideas.html

Wednesday, 22 October 2014. Ashburnham: Practical Progressive Ideas from Fraser and Teleki. May be one of the best-kept secrets in southern Ontario. Where else can you live in a self-contained small town with abundant recreational opportunities that's only a fifteen minute walk across the river to a city with all its amenities - at a price affordable for young families? The older, central area of East City. Is attraction enough, not to mention two public elementary schools. And the Ashburnham Ale House.

The Bridge Too Far: Monaghan, Part Two: Jocasta Boone Leads the Way to Smart Growth

http://bridgetoofarpeterborough.blogspot.com/2014/10/monaghan-part-two-jocasta-boone-leads.html

Friday, 17 October 2014. Monaghan, Part Two: Jocasta Boone Leads the Way to Smart Growth. Drew Monkman's brilliant piece. This week helps us envision Peterborough in 2035. As a healthy, compact city. Whose residents wisely took the path to sustainability. Before it was too late. The city he imagines is more densely populated. With condominium development replacing the low-density sprawl of the late 20th century. Jackson Park remains intact, a natural oasis. In a still-warming, stormy world. Of existing b...

Saturday, 4 October 2014. Northcrest, Part One: Beamer, Haacke, and the Forces of Sprawl. Plan to gather at the Leta Brownscombe Co-op. From 6:30 to 8:30. The Co-op is at 243 Milroy, behind Portage Place. The Examiner. Reports that the lone incumbent Andrew Beamer. Won’t be there, but at least three other candidates will be: Bill Templeman. A teacher at James Strath, is a question mark. She seems to have done very little campaigning, and news reports. Ward 5) is a key battleground. Of the ward’s. That le...

The Bridge Too Far: Northcrest, Part Two: Templeman Calls for Real Community Center

http://bridgetoofarpeterborough.blogspot.com/2014/10/northcrest-part-2-templeman-calls-for.html

Tuesday, 7 October 2014. Northcrest, Part Two: Templeman Calls for Real Community Center. If paving over one-third. Of Northcrest’s greenspace. And turning its only remaining natural area. Into yet another roadway weren’t enough damage to the ward, city staff wants to replace the aging Northcrest arena, the ward’s only public indoor recreational facility. With a new twin-pad at Sir Sandford Fleming. At the city’s far southwestern corner. How did City Hall stray so far from the path? Than the other candid...

Tuesday, 14 October 2014. Monaghan, Part One: Henry Clarke - Friend or Foe of Sustainability? Have represented Monaghan Ward. On city council for as long as most of us can remember.

Are the candidates to join Clarke at the table. We’ll look at their campaigns in the next post. All the way out to Brealey.
