I have rarely experienced an Alberta fall, that shoulder season where the temperatures begin to dip but winter’s clutches haven’t yet taken hold.

I feel that the Town of Okotoks has a responsibility to protect the welfare of the residents, no different than being responsible for maintaining the pathways and streets.

Given home buyers end up paying for it one way or another, there’s something to be said for doing it right the first time.  

Can we please stop for a minute and contemplate ways to cut the overall cost to taxpayers. Surely there are small ways to cut costs.

It’s incumbent on our elected leaders to come to the meeting with the sharpest knife possible to do whatever they can to minimize the pain. 

We were never as close to each other as we were in that home that was under 1,000 square feet.
