Public Meetings

The NPNA hosts monthly/ bi-monthly community meetings, designed to foster respectful, productive discussions on different topics affecting our neighbourhood.

This year we are moving towards a themed approach, each meeting focuses on a different theme such as food security, transportation, harm reduction and safety, parks and recreation ect. 

Guest speakers doing varied work within the neighbourhood, in line with the different themes, are invited to each meeting. Also, our Neighbourhood Liaison Gary Pemberton and/or our City Councillor Stephen Hammond will be in attendance at each meeting.

Below are the previous meeting agendas with notes about what was discussed.
