Since there is no longer a printed newspaper in the city, and the current Notice Bylaw doesn't provide for digital circulations, changes are required to the Notice Bylaw.
An amendment is being put forward in the City Council Agenda for November 22 to add the reference for "digital circulation" wherever "newspaper" is noted in the bylaw, as an additional method to provide notice.
