Barrie eyes expanding borders
Barrie is stoking the fires of boundary expansion again.
City councillors will consider a motion tomorrow to create a working group to co-ordinate, develop and implement a strategy to address Barrie`s need for new employment and residential lands.
Mayor Dave Aspden, Couns. Mike Ramsay, John Brassard, Barry Ward and Jeff Lehman, as well as senior city staff, would be in the group.
"Barrie still needs expanded boundaries, especially in terms of employment lands and to fulfill our role under the province`s Places to Grow (policy)," Ward said. "It is also one of our strategic priorities."
