Somerset Coun. Catherine McKenney ultimately might not be able to prevent the redevelopment of the Medical Arts Building at 180 Metcalfe St., but she was successful Wednesday in getting council to defer its decision on the proposal until it reconvenes in late August.
Ms. McKenney’s motion to defer the decision until the next council meeting on Aug. 26 was unanimously passed on what was a busy final meeting before the summer break.
Council passed its term of council priorities and strategic initiatives as well as a motion to review the taxi bylaw.
