Well we finally made it past 2020. The good news is Canada has a vaccine and it is my hope that by the end of this year we will be able to get back to normal. Even though the town office was closed for the better part of the year we did manage to action all of our business. Our main priority was to keep our workforce safe and in turn keep you our citizens safe. In the coming new year we will be installing a drop box in front of the town office for people who wish to pay their taxes and water bills by cheque or cash, as the office will remain closed to the general public until this pandemic is under control. I want to thank you one and all for your patience during these trying times. I would like to wish you all a happy, safe and healthy new year from my family to yours.
