Council forced to end public delegates on 2023 City budget after protesters drown out meeting with demands to defund police.
Seven Councillors state they will vote to support the police budget. Virtually guaranteeing it will past.
City Council will now decide if they accept the budget or if they’ll send it to arbitration.
City Councillors discuss selling the Auchmar Estate, conducting an annual audit of the Hamilton Police Service budget, the City’s position to the CRTC on Bell Canada’s access to municipal right of way, funding for a new McMaster University program downtown, UBER’s taxi service, and revenue generation programs.
