The arts play a huge role in place making of course, but they also work to foster dialogue and connection, and they give a city a sense of “itself”.-@dinagraser #IgniteEC

The focus is "Driving Public Value Together: Regional Perspectives on Infrastructure and Housing."

#imfgtalks

[DinaGraser @DinaGraser]

"We're the only municipality without a direct straw to the lake" says York CAO Erin Mahoney, discussing the importance of joint regional infrastructure investments. #IMFGtalks

[DinaGraser @DinaGraser]

Building infrastructure has to happen before growth, points out York CAO Erin Mahoney. Can't build housing first. #IMFGtalks

[DinaGraser @DinaGraser]

Durham has seen record numbers of refugees and homelessness has increased dramatically, says CAO Elaine Baxter-Trahair.

[DinaGraser @DinaGraser]

Bill 23 has a "material and significant impact" on the Region's finances, says Durham CAO Elaine Baxter-Trahair.
