City Hall

One resident’s abandoned project illustrates the challenges of adding backyard homes to existing properties, as the city considers whether to make it easier to do so.

Mayor Ken Boshcoff's cancelled appearance on a panel discussion over community safety prompted questions and left other local leaders to set the tone on a wide-ranging conversation.

A program that connected over 50 people in Thunder Bay homeless encampments with housing in 2022 housed only 13 this year.

Thunder Bay’s city council discussed issues of homelessness and intimate partner violence Monday, while making decisions on outdoor rink cuts and a Dease skate park.

City council voted to close 9 outdoor rinks on Monday, mostly neighbourhood ponds that fell short of usership targets.

Responding to sobering statistics, Thunder Bay's city council declared intimate partner violence an epidemic after hearing from local women's groups.

Coun. Kasey Etreni has proposed cutting one-third of the city's outdoor skating rinks, saying the move responds to low user numbers and should help improve ice quality at remaining locations.

Mayor Ken Boshcoff has officially pledged to meet a provincial housing target, the city says, a step that will put him in line to receive enhanced ‘strong mayor’ powers.

City manager Norm Gale defended the municipal government's record on taxes and housing development at a Chamber of Commerce event on Tuesday, while warning strong mayor powers will bring drastic changes.

The City of Thunder Bay is looking to impose stiffer penalties for owners whose pets repeatedly engage in behaviours like biting or defecating on others' property.
