$412,000.00 FENCE TO PROTECT CITY STAFF

Fencing Off Failure Another $412,000 Band-Aid at City Hal l Once again, the City of Nanaimo wants to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars—not to solve a problem, but to wall themselves off from it. A new staff report recommends $412,000 for fencing and security upgrades around City Hall and the Service and Resource Centre (SARC). Why? Because disorder, vandalism, open drug use, and safety concerns have made the area increasingly unsafe for staff. And much of that activity is directly linked to the sanctioned Overdose Prevention Site (OPS) next door at 250 Albert Street—funded by Island Health and operated by CMHA and surrounded by ongoing chaos. Let’s be honest: this is not a fencing problem. This is a drug use and street disorder problem—years in the making and growing worse, not better. This fencing proposal is a reactive cost, not a solution. It’s a symptom of a deeper failure: the refusal of government at every level to deal directly with addiction, mental health, and repe...

CITY SELLING 1.03 ACRES FOR $45,000.00

MARKET PRICE COULD BE OVER $1.5 MILLION WHOSE INTEREST IS CITY HALL LOOKING OUT FOR? GIVING AWAY OVER 1 ACRE FOR $45,000.00 $45K for Parkland? Nanaimo's Latest AAP Deserves Scrutiny It may be too late to stop it, but it's not too late to call it out. Nanaimo City Council has once again launched an Alternative Approval Process (AAP), this time seeking public consent to sell off 1.03 acres of city-owned dedicated parkland to a private developer. Let’s be clear: this is not some forgotten greenspace being swapped for community benefit. This is public land—taxpayer-owned—and the developer wants it to punch a road through for their private gain. According to city documents, staff have recommended selling this land for just $45,000, claiming it reflects “fair market value” because the land is currently designated as park. But this logic is absurd. The developer isn’t buying a park. They’re buying critical road access to unlock the full value of a large, privately owned de...
