In Episode 12, Mayor Jamie MacDonald walks us through the April 13th and April 27th council meetings, covering a proposed telecommunications tower in Alexandria, zoning amendments supporting housing flexibility, and infrastructure and procurement decisions including road resurfacing and new public works equipment investments.
The discussion also explores the township’s recognition of Community Living Month, updates to municipal procurement and operational planning, community grants supporting local organizations, and the designation of the Glengarry Renaissance Festival as a municipally significant event.
Additional topics include regional advocacy on the Alto high-speed rail project, municipal alcohol policy reviews, first-quarter financial reporting, and the ongoing balance between growth, infrastructure planning, and community concerns in North Glengarry.
Why Northern Perspective?
Because it goes beyond meeting minutes — giving residents a clear, conversational understanding of how decisions are made, why they matter, and how they shape the future of North Glengarry.
