Municipal offices seek temporary rental space at Deltex building
The council voted to rent the Deltex building on the highway for 3800 dollars yearly to house the assessment and engineering departments as a temporary solution. The plan aims to centralize calls via a new switchboard, reduce staff needs, and free crowded municipal space while a planned new town hall is built. The Codarvala Community Centre third floor option was dismissed due to layout and access concerns.
