The City has received a request from the RDEK to comment on proposed changes to Home Based Business Regulations. There are concerns that the introduction of light industrial uses in the Cranbrook Rural Area may have a potential impact on the City's ability to attract new business opportunities or to maintain its light industrial base.
Fire and Emergency Services provided clarification from the RCMP regarding calls received from the public to 911 re: impaired drivers. 911 is prepared to receive these type of calls to maintain public safety.

ReplyDeleteIt's a pity that the School Board denied the City's request to use the former Muriel Baxter site as an off-leash dog park, as the field has been lying unused for a number of years?
Very disappointed in the School Board's Decision re a dog park on the centrally located Muriel Baxter Grounds. Why not???
ReplyDeleteWhat is standing in the way? This is such a perfect location and would provide such a community building service.
