***JUST ADDED - City Council - Wednesday, September 24, 2025, 8pm (or immediately following General Committee)
This meeting appears to have been added for the sole purpose of introducing Direct Motions Without Notice, but no further information has been provided.
This is a tactic often used to force through unpopular motions, as it circumvents first hearing at General Committee and prevents deputations from the public.
