Time change issue voted down

Jul 26, 2011 | 6:56 AM

Regina's city council won’t be bringing the time change issue back as the province nears this fall's election.

A motion brought forward by one councillor on Monday, July 25, would have had council pushing the provincial parties to take a position on Daylight Saving Time.

The motion didn’t pass despite a tie vote, with half the councillors insisting that the city's first request heading into the election should be more substantial.

“The priorities that I am concerned about are not Daylight Savings Time,” insisted Councillor Louis Browne.

He wants to see Saskatchewan's cities unite behind an agenda of urban growth and programs such as affordable housing, transit and infrastructure.
