Peterborough is bracing for storms, homes, and real accessibility.

Your week at City Hall: Accessibility, homes, and spring storms

Good morning, Peterborough. Marcus Otonabee-Singh here on the Morning Wire, flowing to you from the Electric City.

Here's the thing about Peterborough, sometimes the biggest currents aren't the ones you see. This past week, the flow of civic life felt deeply tied to the land and our homes.

We saw City Hall advisories for spring storms, reminding us how quickly the weather can shift here, much like the flow of the Otonabee.

The conversation also focused heavily on finding a home and accessibility within our community. It’s a good reminder that while the river keeps flowing, we need to ensure everyone can navigate the currents of daily life.

* Spring storm advisories were issued for Peterborough.

* Discussions focused on home ownership and housing solutions.

* Accessibility initiatives were a key theme at City Hall.

These aren't just bureaucratic notes; they're the pulse of our community, reflecting how we care for one another and the land we share.

This is the Electric City — small town, big current. Let's go.
