The Gottago! Campaign is asking your organization to co-sign the attached letter. In it, we ask the City of Ottawa Mayor and Councillors to include public toilets as essential public health infrastructure in the current budget considerations.
A big thank you to all who have lent their support. A letter co-signed by many community groups, organizations and BIAs will constitute a powerful statement in supporting this policy request.
The city pre-budget consultations has begun on October 6. Therefore it is urgent that you sign this letter as soon as possible so that we can send it to the mayor and councillors for consideration during the budget hearing.
