Commitee work

A source at the city says that all the city committee s are disbanded , and councilors are not willing to sit on new ones. The City Center Board a committee of the city that was charged with the reworking and beatification of the downtown part of the city is most notable in the conversation that goes about. There is a lot of progress the last couple of weeks on the beatification and upgrade of Granite avenue and Garcia Street , to Quilchena after a lay off  for weather. Beautification is clear and large stars in the sidewalk with new benches and flower beds are a tremendous improvement. It remains to be seen why the board responsible is disbanded and the council back in control.

The granite avenue upgrade comes from a Canada Action plan infrastructure funding initiative.
