Statement by Erinn Turnbull

Good day and thank you for reading this. I think it would be an act of self-harm for Hamilton to now reject $1B of FREE investment (that we already accepted!) which will increase economic development in both business and housing sectors, improve and increase use of transit as well as reduce traffic, and increase population density along the LRT route (delivering services to dense areas is less expensive/population so it makes good $ sense to grow #HamOnt that way). The resulting increase in new taxes collected due to LRT implementation can be enjoyed by all Hamiltonians. I do not object to funds being spent on improvement in urban/rural parts of Hamilton that don't seem to affect me or my ward. I am so disappointed in Hamilton council and how this is (not) being handled and in the misinformation certain council members are spreading.
