The Rosemount Expansion and Development (READ) group and Councillor Jeff Leiper are pleased today to release the report arising from their joint community consultation on the future of the Rosemount Library branch. The report summarizes months of discussions between community, Library, City and other stakeholders exploring how the branch can serve the near west end of Ottawa for years to come.

I'd like to pass along my thanks to the residents, multiple City staff, Ministry of Transportation (MTO) staff and consultants and media who made last night's public information session about the potential to close one on-ramp to the Queensway such a well-attended event. Councillor Brockington and our MPP Yasir Naqvi also spent considerable time at the session. The message was clearly heard by everyone that the community is adamantly opposed to the proposed closure.
