Good afternoon folks, it’s just after 12 p.m. I’d like to call a special meeting of the Planning Environment Committee to order. Please check the city website for additional meeting, detail, and information. Meetings can be viewed via live streaming on YouTube and the city website.
The city of London is situated on the traditional lands of the Anishinaabek, Haudenosaunee, Lenapeiwok, and Adawangran. We honor and respect the history, languages, and culture of the diverse indigenous people who call this territory home. The city of London is currently home to many First Nations, Metis, and Inuit today. As representatives of the people of the city of London, we are grateful to have the opportunity to work and live in this territory.
The city of London is committed to making every effort to provide alternate formats and communication supports for meetings upon request.

Seeing none, there are no consent items, there are no scheduled items, items for direction, or deferred matters, additional business.
