Saint John City Hall is too quiet. What's going on?

Your Saint John City Hall has been *too* quiet

Good morning from the Fundy shore — the tide's turning, and so is New Brunswick. Let's get into it.

Well, if you've been following along this week, you'll know it's been a bit of a strange one down at Saint John City Hall. Usually, we've got something to chew on, right? A committee meeting, a new proposal for development down by the waterfront, something about the port. But this week? The civic data portal has been quiet as a Sunday morning on King Street.

### What's Up With That?

I'll tell you what, when it's this quiet, it makes you wonder what's brewing beneath the surface. It's not like the city just stops running.

* No new reports filed from City Hall.

* No updates on council motions.

* It's like the whole place took a collective nap.

It's been mostly just me talking about the weather, which has been its own kind of drama, eh? Rain, wind, special weather statements—you name it, we've had it. But as for City Hall? Zip. Not a peep. You’d think the folks down there were all watching the Bay of Fundy tides turn with the rest of us.

Good morning from the Fundy shore — the tide's turning, and so is New Brunswick. Let's get into it.
