Here is the News1130 article about the proposal getting shot down:

https://www.citynews1130.com/2021/10...reet-increase/

These are the CoV councilors that voted in favour of the proposal:

- Pete Fry (Green)
- Adriane Carr (Green)
- Michael Wiebe (Green)
- Christine Boyle (OneCity)
- Jean Swanson (COPE)

The NPA / ex-NPA councilors all voted against the proposal, and Mayor Kennedy Stewart casted the deciding vote to shoot the proposal down. But don't think for a minute that Stewart is the knight in shining armour saving the day. With With an overwhelming public opposition against the plan as well as the municipal election coming up in Oct 2022, Steward would be committing instant political suicide if he voted in support of the proposal, given the evenly split council votes. So all the reasons that Stewart has cited to justify his deciding vote were BS.
