Summer is here! Watch your mailbox this month for my annual Councillor Newsletter that includes updates on everything related to Ward 3.

Here are some topics and questions we’ve received from residents this past month. For more information or to contact my office directly, visit jasminemian.com.

Q: What do I do if I see water pooling in my neighbourhood?

A: During the heavy spring rainfalls, storm drains can take extra time to drain. If the water hasn’t drained in around 90 minutes and pooling begins, take a picture, and submit it to 311 via the app or online tool. The pictures help the City prioritize urgent requests. (Reminder to keep your eavestroughs clear and keep an eye on your storm drain!)

Q: When will fluoride be back in the water supply?

A: As part of the 2021 General Election, 62% of electors voted in favour of reintroducing fluoridation of the municipal water supply. In November 2021, Council directed Administration to begin the process. Bids for construction happened in March 2023, and it is expected we will finalize a partner this month. Based on the current projection of timelines, the fluoridation system should likely be in service June 2024.
