Windows don’t stay open forever alas. It was pandemic extra special monies from the feds that we left on the table.

Point 2 c. passed!
Foothills Fieldhouse got $20 million today when its budget amendment passed... maybe hear something at the committee's next meeting? They're going to need more funding to get shovels in the ground but maybe we start to get a more detailed design and an ask from the province on some additional funding.
I'll also add that Point 2 d. also passed. More money for the Rapid Housing Initiative & Housing Accelerator is never a bad thing even if it is just $12 million. We need something after losing that Bridgeland building (at least for the short term).

why would the province provide additional funding?

Smith has talked in passing about the Olympics, if you squint you can see how they could throw something at it, especially since its on UofC land if I'm not mistaken.

Does anyone know if II. b. for LAP amenities would include Main Streets, or is this a separate budget item (or did it get cut)?

It did pass, but not sure about the main streets question.

Separate. Mainstreets has $60m

From the city’s Instagram post on the budget. Looks like they asked the province and feds for funds in November, I never saw any news or anything on it myself and was just assuming.

Additional funding implies something extra. Not like there is any doubt the city can fund it with fiscal framework transfers, or whatever is cooked up next to replace it.

Yeah, they definitely just used the image of Harrison for the open house invite on Eventbrite. They likely want the open houses to be the first time stakeholders see the renders.

That's great news! Does anyone have a map of EV's parcels? I roughly know where they're talking about but I'd love to see exactly which two Q3&4 are.
Glad to hear it's ONE Properties, they nailed BLVD so hopefully they can keep up the high quality!
