Preliminary
look –Rest later when video put on-line |
|
|
|
|
Note
that 2 Councillors absent |
|
Kinney
had a previous meeting with daughter in Alberta --- someone was saying Gordon
Payne ‘off flying somewhere’– and she is not running anyways – some one else mentioned she had sent them some home made pastry (apple tart)--- all this ‘chatter’ must
have been from the councillors as only 2 media
types and 1 Mayoralty candidate showed up for meeting --- still given on TV
and ‘streamed’ over internet – it was an easy choice to stay home --- given
the short agenda/ the election/ and the snow showers |
|
|
Probably
the ‘best’ part of meeting was Zeno |
|
Arrow points to his sash (worn in the ‘Miz
Judged’ beauty contest --- His comment was that he was retiring the sash
(costume?) – sending it away somewhere – but that he would remain clean
shaven – as his oldest(?) son had never seen him clean shaven – and he was
due into town sometime soon ---- but then the moustache would return |
|
|
The
passing of the Delegation Bylaw was main
topic – and I will return to it after Video Replay –on-line |
|
Some discussion over the Variance Permit Joy commented –did we not see similar previously
Which allowed Mayor Mussallem to name the previous
property and explain the ‘postage sized lots’ due to the back part of all
these properties on a steep ‘hill’ going back into the park --- More later |
|
I
admit when I took the photos – I was thinking of Mussallem – and his Alpha Male routines --- but at
Council he was very mild and courteous to everyone –even his opponents etc |
Two
Bucks crossing the Highway – everyone stopped – sort of reminds one of the
Moose problem in Newfoundland --- and maybe a cull needed here too |
|
|
|
|
Jack
and in-camera meetings |
|
In
the background are the Containers on CN RR cars ---- Mussallem keeps
mentioning the agreement Council struck with CN about train whistling --- but
the details have never come out in public --- so no way to judge how
effective ----- almost every night one will hear a series of whistles etc --- but could be just an automobile at some crossing etc Plus
Mussallem mentioned as some of his accomplishments at Candidate For a – how
City had leased property to Port with 2 year legal terms that must provide
some sort of building --- I don’t remember this being announced in a Council
meeting --- but in its way typical of Jack --- see my earlier where ‘someone’
announced SQCRD name change |
|
|
A
Problem? |
|
Seems to be an ongoing problem of trucks parking on
sidewalk – perhaps guests at Highliner --- often
with Alberta plates --- ‘problem’ appears to be the angle paring --- and the
length of their trucks – to be fair they are either going to block a lane of
traffic or cut off pedestrians --- where is Zeno when we need him? |
|
One of these had an Alberta plates –
there all weekend |
|
|
|
|
|
I
will come back to election Thursday |
|
Probably the best online use is by Jen Rice --- who brings
both youth and computer smarts --- thus the Lester Center debate is being put
online from her site --- http://votejenrice.com/all-candidates-video-recordings
|
|
|
|
|
Plus www.bedard4mayor.ca
--- but may be too large to see (70 plus images loading) One could be sure Mussallem won’t be doing a web site of
his own – the going ‘Prince Rumour’ is that he does
not use computers at all --- and that is why he needed a full time clerk to
handle his emails etc |
