Big News City Council received SO many sign ups for this week's hearings that the Mt. Pleasant Data Centre has been referred back to city staff for further public consultation! The vote to approve the development will be delayed! It will likely have to wait until after the municipal election this FALL. IN THE MEANTIME, let's pay it forward and lend a hand to our friends at the Vancouver Tenants Union! Sign up now to speak on Item 4 of the July 23rd hearing, and protect the current residents of Myron Manor from being displaced by a tech hotel.
