update news : polic said Wall Government's Education Ministry removes $30 million from capital spending budget this year...
March 12, 2010
Take the pertinent Warman Elementary School issue the NDP Opposition raised in Thursday morning's question period: A deaf Kindergarten boy and his teacher had to use a paint closet because that was the only remaining space available in the overcrowded school for one-on-one sessions to help him with his hearing. By no small coincidence, the collapse in potash revenue was one of the factors behind the Education Ministry removing $30 million from its capital spending budget this year - money that might have speeded up the construction of Warman's new middle school that's ranked seventh on the government's priority list. -Murray Mandryk, The Leader-Post

update news :Downtown resident concerned about noise - City Hall Notebook


The letter of the week among the dozens submitted to council for this meeting.

From Michelle Banman, a downtown resident:

As a resident of downtown Saskatoon, I am compelled to write yet again of my concerns regarding events that are held in the downtown core on the weekends. I seem to write on a yearly basis, and nothing ever seems to change.

Once again this past weekend (June 18 &19), I was unable to be outside on my balcony (that faces west) and have windows open due to the noise pollution that a road hockey tournament caused. This event was/is taking place in front of Frances Morrison Library (and connects to adjacent 4th Avenue, I believe). The loudspeaker used to commentate on the games is horrifically loud. The cheering voices is easier to take than the reverberating sounds that bounce off all the concrete buildings downtown.

It seems to fall on deaf ears (much like mine after this weekend) that the downtown, while a place of commerce and business, is also HOME to thousands as well. We do not leave after 5 pm. We are here all night long. We are here on weekends, and we are here in the early hours of the morning, having to endure all the noise that events that the city permits to take place.

Is this not what places like the Soccer Centre are for? For events like this? That are much better able to house the traffic and the people that sporting events bring? I have asked repeatedly for the High Voltage Classic to be held elsewhere, and have yet to see (hear) any resolution on this issue either.
