Ladies and Gentlemen
A fine albeit rainy week in store as we head into the
Easter break. Time to get that lawn and
garden whipped into shape for what promises to be a great summer.
The
Week Ahead
Monday the 10th at 10:00 am our
Midland Lions come to Town Hall to raise their flag in honour of the Midland
Lions 80th anniversary. At 7:00 pm it’s the General Committee
meeting including:
-
A presentation for putting Yonge Street from
First to Eighth on a “road diet” - that is narrowing the road to reduce speed
and improve pedestrian safety
-
Minor changes to the composition of our OPP
Costing Committee
-
Review of alternate voting methods that we
may use for the 2018 election
-
A proposal by Barnstormer Brewery and the
Boathouse Restaurant for an Oktoberfest event at our waterfront
On Tuesday at 9:00 am, County Council will discuss
a number of interesting issues including reducing garbage Double-Up Days;
limiting the number of tagged bags that you can put out; and deciding on our
Midland OPA #9 respecting Second Units.
Starting
Wednesday the 12th and every Wednesday at 4pm thereafter, our
Library is holding a Children’s Gardening Club in the Library’s rooftop garden.
(How many of you knew there was a garden on top of our Library?) Get ready to
make friends, give back, and get messy! Children younger and older are paired
with a buddy as we explore new topics from soil and seeds to vegetables
and pollination every week.
Friday the 14th is Good Friday –
Town offices will be closed. At 8:00 pm
the Steve Strongman band will be playing the MCC.

Issues Update
MPUC
The MPUC Transaction Committee is continuing its discussions
with our consultant about the response to the RFP process. See attached media
release.
GBGH
On March 31st GBGH issued the purchase
order for its new CT scanner. The GBGH Board and Foundation want to extend
their thanks to everyone for their solid support which now allows GBGH to move
forward with this much anticipated and needed replacement. Midland bats way above the
average when it comes to supporting Georgian Bay General Hospital.
*****
Town is closed on the Monday.
