Quick recap

Key item for discussion was the first reading of the snow removal bylaw coming up from the Economic Development Subcommittee which advanced it for discussion by a 3-1 vote. It failed to move to a second reading by a 4-5 vote (4 for, 5 against). The language will be reworked in discussion with the "no" votes to address their concerns.
