City Council is going to keep the Centennial Botanical Conservatory open. They voted to install 76-thousand dollars worth of netting that will help protect falling glass in the area of the tropical display house. Councillor Rebecca Johnson was one of several who were against the netting and calls buying the nets a band aid solution. Meanwhile, Councillor Brian McKinnon called opening the conservatory with netting is another "Elliot Lake" waiting to happen. Council also asked administration to find money in the 2013 budget to rebuild the greenhouses and come up with a plan for the future use of the conservatory.
