Your City Hall was a bit too quiet this week, I'll tell you what.

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

Right, so this past week, we've been keeping a close eye on Saint John City Hall, and what we've mostly seen is... well, not a whole lot. It's been quieter than a clam at low tide down there, and I'll tell you what, that's not always a good sign when you're expecting important civic updates.

We were looking for the usual hum of activity, especially with all the talk about real estate in Saint John finally getting serious, you know? But the open data portal, usually our go-to for what's what, seems to have gone on holiday. It’s hard to tell what’s moving when the main street seems deserted.

Here's the gist of it:

* **Unusual Quiet:** City Hall's been uncharacteristically silent this week.

* **Data Drought:** The open data portal, where we get a lot of our civic info, has been empty.

* **Missed Opportunities:** With housing and development being such hot topics in Saint John, the lack of updates is noticeable.

It leaves you wondering, doesn't it? What's going on behind the scenes when everything goes this quiet? For us folks living here, it means less transparency, and that's never ideal for a city trying to grow and move forward, right?
