At their meeting this week Flin Flon City Council agreed to donate 500 dollars to the Elks Christmas Cheer Fund with Finance Chair Councillor Colleen McKee noting they have very few members to do their canvas and the request meets guidelines set out for funding.  McKee took the opportunity to add anyone needing financial support from the city for their projects should familiarize themselves with the process of applying and be aware the intake dates for requests are January 31^st, April 30^th, July 31^st and October 31^st.

In other business Council received a letter from Harry Hobbs requesting handicapped parking stalls in front of and behind the Community Hall. The letter was referred to the Traffic Commission.

   Council also received a letter from Nevada Shirran asking them to encourage the opening of new restaurants in our community because it will help Flin Flon get more money and will make the people living here happier.  Mayor Cal Huntley said it’s good to hear from a young person interested in the community.  The letter was referred to the committee of the whole council.
