Flin Flon City Council gathered for the first time at Council Chambers on Tuesday night.
A number of resolutions were passed including the use of Council Chambers for the Pat Bruderer Art exhibit from March the 13th to April the 17th. The City has also approved the schedule rates for their 911 service which will go up by 3 %.
The City has also resolved an agreement with the Clean Communities group who are doing a study on possibly adding a new apartment block to the community which could see an additional 80 to 100 suites being added. They are looking at possible locations including 20 Boam, 320 Green street and North Princess street.
Mayor Fontaine was quick to point out that this is just a study at this point and a lot of research and work needs to be done.
Mayor Fontaine and the rest of council are very excited about the new year with a lot of promising things to look forward to including the building of the new RCMP detachment, new UCN housing complex, and a new community bus , shelter and sidewalks.
Work will also be completed on Main street with paving and the addition of new lights.
Council has also terminated the employment of Chief Administrative Officer Sandy Stokes as of January the 6th. Lynn Brown will fill in til a successor is found.
