​Lethbridge's new Public Places Bylaw is designed to be a foundation to clearly communicate community expectations for respectful behaviour in public. It is anticipated that, applied fairly and judiciously, Bylaw 6280 will contribute to maintaining a safe and viable community. City Council on Tuesday voted unanimously on both second and third reading in favour of the Public Places Bylaw, which includes a start date of July 1.

​As the 3rd Avenue South reconstruction project nears completion, two new painted crosswalks at the 7 Street intersection will have extra significance. On Tuesday, construction crews complete painting and installation of a progressive LGBTQ+ flag crosswalk and a Transgender flag crosswalk on the corner of 3 Avenue South and 7 Street South in Downtown Lethbridge.
