The motion was shared here earlier:

https://lemmy.ca/post/25243197

There were 35 speakers in support, 1 speaker in opposition. The amendment and motion were supported unanimously by councillors. There were hundreds of comments received, largely in support.

The 49th Avenue, 41st Avenue, 4th Avenue, Granville Street, and Hastings Street corridors were talked about most. The amendment added Granville Street to the list of corridors of focus, and inclusion of TransLink's report for city staff reference. Another important point was the request for automated buslane enforcement.

Listening to each speaker, I think the one speaker in opposition was speaking for the Gastown BIA, worried about parking at Cordova Steeet.

It’s always about parking isn’t it?
