Tie vote at City Hall defeats motion to explore water utility rebate for all low-income residents

Another attempt to put a rebate program in place for all low-income households in Regina has failed thanks to a tie vote at executive committee this week. “I’m very frustrated,” Coun. Andrew Stevens (Ward 3) said in an interview Thursday. “It’s going to be increasingly more difficult for us to have credibility when it comes to community wellness, to talk about poverty, anti-poverty initiatives, when we decided on several occasions not to use the levers at our disposal to address these concerns.”
