For years, Earl Taylor, as chair of the Downtown Development Board, was an outspoken promoter of the city’s core.
From events throughout the year like Nostalgia Nights and the Christmas tree-lighting ceremony to the Downtown Dollars promotion, Taylor strived to keep downtown businesses front and centre despite a pandemic and the lengthy reconstruction of Talbot Street.
But early last year, Taylor made the tough decision to step away from that role.
“It’s time for me to move on,” affirmed Taylor.
And move on he has.
Right into the heart of downtown, inside city hall.
