Waterfront Action is hosting a panel discussion on Tuesday May 30 on the subject of “Street Design and Healthy Communities”. From their mail-out:<\/p>\n

WaterfrontAction has been involved in a number of the TWRC and City’s projects along the waterfront. All of the new communities being planned will need safe streets and good transit services so that we can have healthy vibrant communities for the people who will live there. We have organized a panel of speakers to address these issues from a number of perspective and we REALLY want and need you to be there for this discussion.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Panelists:<\/p>\n

Christopher Hume — Toronto Star Columnist
