Ward 12 Councillor Craig Cassar (and his staff) publish a monthly newsletter. The July 2026 edition was issued yesterday.

Two items I take note of:

• Cassar will vote against the Elfrida expansion area secondary plan that will be in front of Council on August 25; and
• There is a lengthy explanation regarding why Cassar opposed Councillor Nrinder Nann’s interim-control bylaw to block data centres.

Good Saturday morning, I will be posting news briefs throughout the weekend as I catch up on my inbox from the week that is ended.

The news notes feature serves two primary purposes:

1. It enables me to share news briefs with you, the audience, in a quick easy-to-read format; and
2. It serves as an easy reference point for me to use the future when I need to link to background in stories.
