The reason recorded for this question

All 17 people who raised the $100 million in this source take the approval as given, so checking the council vote would settle nothing anybody here is arguing about. What is argued about is how long the money covers and how it sits beside road spending, and that half went to a separate question, now published: how the money for bike lanes compares with what Edmonton spends on roads.
