ABC Coun . Rebecca Bligh , who voted with ABC majority to support the natural gas pivot, is signalling now she could switch her vote for the final decision.

Bligh says she does not yet know how she will vote in November .

Council ’s July decision was praised by the leadership of the Homebuilders Association Vancouver , as well as a coalition of labour and business groups.

The sudden reversal undermines decades of efforts to build a sustainable, resilient economy and a strong reputation as a climate leading city.

“It just makes the city look bad,” says CEO of Vancouver software company New/Mode.

Green Coun . Adriane Carr will introduce a motion this week that mentions Montague ’s amendment and asks staff to report back.
