It was nice to be present on Monday at the re-opening of Mona Vale homestead, a real treasure for our city. It was well attended by councillors, fellow community board members, council staff, media and members of the community. Sharing some images from the event.

In the afternoon, I attended a training about Tree removal process, which was both varied and interesting. Following this, we had our regular Community Board meeting - where creation of a separate Youth Development Fund was approved. To end the day, we attended a workshop about the annual plan process.
I also received both a print copy and an electronic copy of our community board group photo, taken in October.
