As part of neighbourhood renewal, Bonnie Doon is getting new streetlights. Based on feedback to our survey, Bonnie Doon Community League has recommended black streetlights with a fluted pole and heritage arm. We are waiting for the City to provide us a cost on this type of decorative streetlight. Once we hear back (expected in early September), we will need to get signatures from 51% of home owners who favor black streetlights with a fluted pole and heritage arm. We will be going door to door to get signatures. We will need some extra volunteers to help out with this. If you can help out, please contact [email protected].

It's true. I found a backpack full of discarded needles in the alley behind my place in bonnie doon... it was disgusting! I only bothered to look inside because I was curious why the base of it was dripping with what looked like blood. Maybe they were for legitimate medical use, maybe not, but I have started to pay more attention to the people who -maybe normally- I would ignore. I think there are a few unsavory types living under the radar in our area, but I don't what we can really do about that - other than ignore them - I suppose it's a start to shine brighter lights on them.
