The capital city will not pursue the purchase of a right-of-way to allow Kenmount Terrace residents access to trails from Lady Anderson Street.
Local resident Stephen Hinchey raised concern when heavy equipment started excavating the existing gap between homes that neighbourhood residents use to access trails.
He called on the city to do something to maintain a right-of-way for pedestrians.

Ward 4 councilor Tom Davis says while the city will not purchase a right-of-way for legal and planning reasons, the conversation is not over.
Davis says city staff are available to meet with residents to discuss their concerns and explore potential alternatives.
Meanwhile, Davis says he will meet with residents at the corner of Tigress and Lady Anderson this morning at 10:00 a.m.
