The latest issue of NewsNow, which should be hitting your mailbox in the next day or so, has rolled out a feature article and editorial on the recent approval by the Committee of Adjustment for a large-scale medical marijuana facility close to homes and the YMCA. The rather clandestine attempt to push this through is a real eye opener.

Spring is certainly upon us and with that is a new set of Town meetings for April. You can see the upcoming meetings in our sidebar or click the graphic to be taken to our calendar.
Please note that although April 2 (Easter Monday) is typically a government holiday, Council will be seated on that day as per it’s regular schedule.
Also of special note is the April 10th, 2018 Planning & Development meeting. For those who were unable to get into Town Hall and speak at the Century Condos “Open House” on March 27th, the Town has tentatively scheduled this date to give those people an opportunity to speak (we will post more details once they have been confirmed).
The agenda was light again for the March 5th Council meeting. The minutes have not yet been posted to the Town site but we’ve captured a brief summary for you below.
Here are our notes from the February 20th Council meeting. The Town has not posted the official minutes to their website as of yet.
