Any chance these proposals will be made public?
Under the Municipal Act, there are only a small handfull of things a Council of a municipality can do that are confidential and not made public.
Under Section 239(2) of the Municipal Act:
A meeting or part of a meeting may be closed to the public if the subject matter being considered is,
a) the security of the property of the municipality or local board;
b) personal matters about an identifiable individual, including municipal or local board employees;
c) a proposed or pending acquisition or disposition of land by the municipality or local board;
d) labour relations or employee negotiations;
e) litigation or potential litigation, including matters before administrative tribunals, affecting the municipality or local board;
f) advice that is subject to solicitor-client privilege, including communications necessary for that purpose;
g) a matter in respect of which a council, board, committee or other body may hold a closed meeting under another Act. 2001, c. 25, s. 239 (2).
So yes, almost certain the design will most definitely be made public. Other matters about the station such as land acquisition, legal risk, etc. would be done in a closed Council session.
