Union representatives set up a strike trailer in the Humber College North campus parking lot on Thursday afternoon. Union representatives were hosting information pickets at various locations throughout the province. Talks are ongoing over the weekend.

Director of Marketing and Communications for Humber Sylvia Kowal said the college is hoping to have the matter resolved before the strike deadline. However, she assured that classes will go on despite the strike.

"The college will remain open for both our day and evening classes," said Kowal. The workers in position to strike are members of OPSEU local 563 and are not faculty, but rather administrative staff at the college.

In the event of a work stoppage, Kowal said the college will continue to update students through its website www.humber.ca

That day's storm was one of the costliest in the city's history and produced 3,600 complaints of flooded basements. Most of the damage was north of Hwy. 401, where six inches (150 millilitres) of rain fell in three hours.

The city is undergoing an environmental study to find what caused the flooding in different areas of the city and what could be done in each area to prevent floods during another major storm.

Residents of Study Area 31, between Victoria Park Avenue and Kennedy Road and from Steeles Avenue to Sheppard Avenues, are invited to learn about the study at an open house from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. next Wednesday, Sept. 3 at the Stephen Leacock Community Centre, 2520 Birchmount Road.

The city has already identified possible solutions for flooding in Area 30, which includes the Maryvale neighbourhood east of Victoria Park and west of Warden Avenue and Birchmount Road south of the 401.

Residents of that area are invited to study the details at Maryvale Branch Library, 85 Ellesmere Road, or Pleasant View Library at 575 Van Horne Avenue.

People can also learn more about the study by calling 416-397-7777 or going to www.toronto.ca/involved/projects
