    Councillor Neufeld commented that in 2015, former MPP Dave Cooke and Mr. David Musyj (President and CEO of Windsor Regional Hospital) addressed a crowd in Kingsville at Migration Hall to discuss and answer questions from the public regarding the megahospital project. At that time, a location had not been chosen by the steering committee. He indicated that now, in 2019, a location has been chosen, however, not without controversy. 

    Councillor Neufeld stated that at the next Regular Meeting he may move, or cause to have moved, that Administration be directed to invite Mr. Musyj and Mr. Cooke back to Kingsville to provide our Council and residents an update on the proposed new megahospital, and how the plan has changed from what was originally presented. 


Councillor Patterson informed that the Ruthven Apple Festival will not include a parade this year, and that a children's entertainer has been added as an event.

Councillor Neufeld commented that the new pedestrian crossovers will be installed shortly, and asked if Administration could investigate the cost and feasibility to have the pavement markings painted in rainbow colours in both locations. Director Plancke advised that he would look into the matter and provide information back to Council.
