Thunder Bay city council on Monday voted in favour of a recommendation from administration to manually remove undesirable plant species and mow a maintenance strip along edges, which they say can be done within the existing 2023 budget.
Coun. Kristen Oliver, who represents the Westfort ward, stated that Monday night’s decision is all about listening. "Unfortunately, there was some miscommunication and the seeds didn't really have enough time to take. There was mowing that went on when it shouldn't have, and then there was grass seed that was planted on top of that. So as a result, we did see the neighbourhood very frustrated and upset because it was taken over by substantial weed growth.”
"We are reducing the amount of mowing that has to take place, [which means] we're reducing the greenhouse gas emissions that we have in the environment, we're reducing labour costs, gas costs. The overall benefits certainly outweigh the negative part of it.”
