Ladies
and Gentlemen
It’s officially summer. The Butter Tart festival and Party
on the Dock are in the books - both having been incredibly successful. It’s now time to settle into the lazy hazy
days of summer. Feel the relief…..
Monday June 23rd starts with a closed meeting
at 6:30 pm to discuss appointments to various Town committees. At 7:00 pm is
the Council meeting. A relatively short
agenda including:
-
Two deputations:
o
Update on our source water protection
o
Tiffin residents concerned about the removal
of development covenants
-
Information about the authorities for the Police
Service Board
-
A by-law to require citizens to maintain their
boulevards
County Council will be meeting on Tuesday June 24th,
at 9:00 am in Midhurst. An interesting
agenda for Midland as it will deal with:
-
Establishing an economic development committee,
complementing the one we now have in North Simcoe and
-
Launching a transit study to review and implement
needed public transit systems in Simcoe County
At 3:00 pm the North Simcoe Housing Working Group meets
at Town Hall – if you are interested in our housing future you are welcome to
attend. And to close the day, at 7:00 pm the North Simcoe municipalities are hosting
a public meeting to provide information for those who are thinking of running
for public office in the upcoming municipal election. That’s at the NSSRC.
Wednesday is a bit quieter. You are invited to attend the Huronia Players
AGM at 7:00 pm at the MCC – it’s an AGM but the Players always make it a fun
time.
Thursday is just busy. You may wish to begin by attending
the graduation ceremony for the Learning Centre at 10:30 am at the NSSRC. Then at noon, the GBGH hosts its AGM at the
MCC. That afternoon at 2:00 pm will see the
four municipalities meeting at the Tay Town Hall for the regular Huronia
Economic Alliance meeting. You are welcome
to attend.
At 4:00 pm the GBGH provides a “Report to the Community”.
The meeting will take place in the cafeteria in the hospital. The meeting is intended for the public and will
bring you up to speed on the challenges facing our hospital. At 7:00 pm its graduation night. Both MSS and St. Theresa host their graduating
ceremonies. (Do you remember your graduation ceremony? – excitement and energy)
And if you were to have wandered by the Town dock
sometime during the day, you may have noticed the tall ship Peacemaker coming
into harbor for visit. The Peacemaker and crew will be here until the 30th.
On Friday June 27th, Shelter Now is having a fundraising Car Wash from
12:00 until 6:30 in their back parking lot (850 Hartman Drive, just off of
Yonge). For a minimum $5.00 donation and a food donation for the Midland
Salvation Army food bank you can get your car sparkling shiny and even enjoy a
hamburger, drink and/or a freezie while you wait!
