Statement by Nicholas Kevlahan
Dear Mayor and Council,
It is almost exactly 14 years since the Provincial government promised to fund an LRT system for Hamilton: June 15 2007.
The time for delay, hesitation, and ever more conditions is long over. This project has been extensively studied by the City, the Province and the Federal government and found to provide a huge net benefit to Hamilton.
The Federal and Provincial governments are making an incredible offer, far beyond what Council was hoping for back in May 2008 when you voted to pursue LRT with "full Provincial funding of the direct capital costs".
Please TAKE YES FOR AN ANSWER, and vote to negotiate an MOU to accept $3.4 billion in external funding to build LRT and upgrade other infrastructure in Hamilton! This is a once in a lifetime opportunity.
Yours sincerely,
Nicholas Kevlahan
