Midtown residents voice frustration over petition process
Emotions are spilling over in Prince Albert’s midtown area over a decision made by city council on garbage bins.
During their Nov. 20 meeting, council unanimously decided a block-wide petition garnering majority support was needed before community bins would be replaced.
Shauna Baglole lives in the 400 blook of 12th St. E. She said the petition is in stark contrast to what they were told during a previous council meeting in October.
“At the meeting we attended before, I understood it as a gradual implementation throughout midtown. There was a particular councillor who said it was going to happen, and now this has changed to being a petition,” she said.
