Countdown to the MZO

Tenants Yuliia and Sergei Nesterenko and two children face eviction order after complaining
An MZO, by its very nature, removes municipal jurisdiction. It overrides municipal zoning. If granted, it would establish a Special Economic Zone right on Picton Bay, where the Terminals can do what it likes. Of course, the Terminals has always pretty much done what it likes.

Monitoring Cold Creek

Nobody wants growth that just creates a mindless suburban swathe. You need intentional growth, and that requires a shared vision. People working together create a place they want to live in.
