Matt Muirhead
Last week Matt called me to let me know that he was withdrawing as a candidate for the Kanata North Council seat. He shared with me that he was concerned about the time the campaign took away from his young family. I respect his decision to withdraw at this time. Matt has contributed a great deal to our community as President of the Briarbrook/Morgans Grant Community Association and as a tireless graffiti remover. He has asked me to ensure that the issues that concerned him be discussed during the campaign and I am happy to do so and will discuss them with him to ensure complete coverage. I have deep respect for his integrity, his attitude and his caring for the people in our communities. Ive worked well with Matt during the past few years and value his ideas, knowledge and advice. Matt is a community leader who will help guide our community forward and I look forward to continue working with him and the community.
Road Closure
The City has approved the closure of Kanata Avenue between Richardson Side Road and Strikine Drive from Wed. 4 August 2010 to Friday, 19 Nov. 2010. This closure is required for the reconstruction of that part of Kanata Ave. to an urban standard with storm sewers, sidewalks, lighting and a roundabout. There is a great deal of rock to be removed, which requires crews to use the width of the road for safety, sewer installation and road reconstruction. During this time all traffic will be routed along Kanata Ave to Campeau Dr. OC Transpo will re-route the 68 Express bus to bypass the closure.
