The question it is checked under
Did council pause the future bike routes when its own administration recommended it?
This claim is checked as part of that question. One brief covers every claim under it, and each claim still gets its own finding.
The investigation's outcomeGoing ahead
Administration’s report and recorded votes can show what pause was recommended, which motions were made and how each councillor voted, without examining the allegation about councillors’ motives.
The same claim as rice-50m-motions-and-review, in different words. It is checked there, so it is not checked twice.

Councillor Karen Principe and I brought forward two motions — twice — to cut it to $50M and redirect the rest to core priorities. Council didn’t support them.
