Chetwynd considers water plant by laws and plumbing rule changes
This week ten years ago health ministers delayed hospital progress as three by laws were debated. A water treatment plant proposal at sixty thousand dollars shared annual maintenance of about six thousand for twenty years. A third by law required licensed plumbing contractors for village alterations while owners could install in single homes with inspected work. Five years ago the Lions Club rodeo parade drew large crowds with Queen Tarla Hoover leading floats and riders. Two years ago the town hosted the recreation festival and rodeo with a new motel manager and arena events.
