The final Regular council session scheduled for May takes place this evening, the night one which will bring a number of Reports forward to Council, the majority related to Variance requests or Zoning Amendments.
Among those two of note are for proposed apartment buildings, one destined for Hays Cove Avenue, the other for another city property, this one to be sold on 9th Avenue West.
The Liquor Licence Amendment for Port City Spirits returns tonight, but it may not make for much discussion with the City recommending a further postponement of a decision until June 12th.
The Port City spirits themes and perhaps some of the others on the Agenda will be available for comment from the public if they wish at the start of the Regular Council Session in the comment period.
Among some of the other items up for Review,
