Your City Hall just pulled a fast one. What did you miss?

You won't believe what City Hall got up to this week, buddy!

Some good morning, buddy — this is Halifax, and we have stories.

Well now, what a week it's been down at City Hall, eh? It felt like we were getting tossed around more than a ferry in a chop out there on the harbour. If you blinked, you might've missed something important, because they were moving faster than a tourist trying to find a parking spot downtown.

We had some big discussions bubbling away:

* **Weather, my son, the weather!** We had more weather advisories than you can shake a stick at. It really put a focus on how our city deals with the elements, which is always a big yarn for us.

* **Decisions flying around.** There were some surprising votes and some real head-scratchers this week. Felt like they were trying to pull a rabbit out of a hat, only some of those rabbits were still a bit fuzzy around the edges.

It was a real mixed bag, like getting a double-double that's half coffee, half tea. The main thing is, a lot of different things were happening all at once, making it hard to pin down one big story. Keep an eye on the news, because some of these stories are going to keep on rolling, just like the fog off the Atlantic.

Some good morning, buddy — this is Halifax, and we have stories.
