Coming out of a closed session on September 5th, Peterborough City Council voted unanimously to temporarily amend the Parks and Facilities bylaw 19-074 and Trespass bylaw 19-075.
What promised to be a short meeting of Peterborough City Council found itself dragged into unforeseen deliberations on Monday August 28th, as the recommended tax rate increases for the upcoming 2024 budget once again became a topic of debate.
Arthur staff were there on the ground during the seven hours of budget presentations in order to ensure we could bring to our readers the highlights and implications of Council’s decision to move on a budget guideline and what it could mean for you and the future of this City.
With Issue 7 we bring an end to the 58th volume of this fair publication and what a year it was! This edition includes the culmination of a month's long investigation into the working conditions of dons at Trent alongside local news, arts, and events coverage.

Issue 6 is your one stop shop to all the hot goss going on at Trent! TCSA VP resignation? Leo saying a swear? Another questionable election? You got it and it's all here alongside local news, arts, and culture from around Peterborough/Nogojiwanong!
Arthur is back for round two with Issue 1. In this issue you'll find interviews with Stephen Stohn and the proprietors of Peterborough's newest independent bookstore, Take Cover Books. Get the latest on City Council's strategy on homelessness and reports from the ground of local protests. We're also happy to introduce a new column with "Gator Goes Global" and the return of fan favourite "Cinevangelism."
Breaking news out of The Borough this week: Hundreds of protestors showed up at City Hall to contest the 2025 Draft Budget, which could see funding to arts and social services cut to accommodate council's will of a strict 5% tax increase.
