Gaukel Street Pedestrian Promenade

[Rainrider22]

I stopped by with my daughter on our way to the grand opening of Walper Barber shop on Saturday. It looked great and there was a nice turn out. I spoke to the Mayor for a while. He advised me that overall Counsel supports the idea of closing the road permanently and making it into a pedestrian way. Also of note, I asked him now that the development levy waiver for new builds in the downtown is complete, does he think there will be a slow down in new development. He advised it was the opposite, they are seeing even more new project proposals in the stream for the future. If this is the case, I think that addressing areas like Gaukel street even more important.
