  • Appendix 23: Environmental Class Assessment Appendix 23
    Appendix 23: Environmental Class Assessment Appendix 23 Figure 18: Municipal Class Environmental Assessment Planning and Design Process, shows the workflow necessary to meet the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment requirements that are applicable to this Pedestrian Mobility Plan study. The overall approach to the Pedestrian Mobility Plan reflects the following key principles of successful Environmental Assessment planning1: • “Consultation with affected parties early in and throughout the process” • “Consideration of a reasonable range of alternatives” • “Identification and consideration of the effects of each alternative on all aspects of the environment” • “Systematic evaluation of alternatives in terms of their advantages and disadvantages to determine their net environmental effects” • “Provision of clear and complete documentation of the planning process followed, to allow 'traceability' of decision‐making with respect to the project”. Phase 1 identifies the problems and opportunities associated with the City's pedestrian mobility network. Phase 2 develops alternative solutions to address the identified problems and opportunities, with consideration for the existing environment and input from the public and regulatory agencies. The workflow incorporates one discretionary and two mandatory points of contact with the public. The public are invited to participate and submit comments on this study through various mediums, including on‐line mapping, surveys, and Public Information Centres. In the end, a Plan document is prepared for a minimum 30‐day public review period. A Notice of Study Completion will be advertised in the Hamilton Spectator and local community newspapers to announce the 30‐day review period. Part II of the Environmental Assessment Act refers to the Ministry of Environment’s review and approval for individual environmental assessments.

    H-Canada King on Anderson, 'The Life Writings of Mary Baker McQuesten, Victorian Matriarch' and Armstrong, 'Seven Eggs Today: The Diaries of Mary Armstrong, 1859 and 1869' Review published on Monday, November 1, 2004 Mary J. Anderson, ed. The Life Writings of Mary Baker McQuesten, Victorian Matriarch. Waterloo: Wilfrid Laurier Press, 2004. xxii + 337 pp. $55.00 (cloth), ISBN 978-0-88920-437-9.Jackson W. Armstrong, ed.

King (Department of History, Trent University)Published on H-Canada (November, 2004) A Tale of Two Marys: Women's Lives in Diaries and Letters These two books, Seven Eggs Today: The Diaries of Mary Armstrong, 1859 and 1869 and The Life Writings of Mary Baker McQuesten, Victorian Matriarch, provide unique snapshots into the lives of two women in nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Ontario, using diaries and letters. The two forms provide alternative ways of looking into the lives of individual women and, therefore, different types of information. On the one hand, Mary Wickson Armstrong was decidedly middle class. Her diaries were written without the expectation that they would be read by anyone other than herself. Mary Baker McQuesten, on the other hand, was considerably more well-to-do, at least until her husband's death. Her letters were written and purposefully saved in the expectation that they would be read at least by other members of the family, and often with the forethought that the family would be restored to a prominent place in society.

  • Walter Gretzky – Lord Mayor of Brantford Tribute Bust the Project
    Glenhyrst Art Gallery of Brant – Public Art Project Proposal Walter Gretzky – Lord Mayor of Brantford Tribute Bust Glenhyrst Art Gallery of Brant is a public regional art gallery in Brantford, Ontario that provides the region with six annual art exhibitions, over 40 events per year, a variety of art classes, workshops and camps for both adults and children, and a Permanent Collection with over 600 artworks. Glenhyrst is dedicated to engaging our local and regional communities with art and culture. As such, we propose a public art project that combines Brantford’s love of hockey while honouring our recently passed local hero, Walter Gretzky. Our focus on providing the community with public art in recent years fulfills our mandate to reframe the way that art and culture is accessed and encountered throughout the city, further expanding our responsibility as a public art gallery. The Project Glenhyrst was approached last year by the City of Brantford to facilitate the Call to Artists for the Walter Gretzky Portrait for the newly named Walter Gretzky Municipal Golf Course (previously the Northridge Municipal Golf Course). During that facilitation process, we took notice of one of the entries: a local sculptor named Robert Dey, who submitted a clay cast (to be bronzed) of Walter Gretzky as his submission. The submission was not chosen by the Jurors for the Portrait Call for Artists, but after the passing of Mr. Gretzky, we feel that creating a bust is a tremendous opportunity to honour him as Brantford’s only Lord Mayor. We have approached the artist and he is excited about the prospect of honouring Mr.
