Village council report on elections and park plans in Chetwynd
Alderman Hoover signaled plans to run in the next village election. The council granted Wolverine Tunnel Constructors winter electrical plug ins at Chetwynd Airport Terminal Building with a flat fee and discussed extending plug ins to others. Mayor Lasser urged village office to write its own council reports. The Library Board proposed carrying over a budget surplus due to additions and staff increases for new programs. A Crown Subdivision resident urged a new park site across from 44th street, with volunteers offering labor and materials. BC Rail raised fencing concerns but council agreed the area could eventually become a park.
