Your river is still, but the currents flow deep
Here's the thing about Peterborough: sometimes, the most important movements at City Hall aren't the ones making big splashes. This past week felt a bit like that – a quiet surface, but with plenty of undercurrents shaping our shared future. We’ve been tracking the steady flow of development permits, always a constant, always worth watching to see how our city grows and changes.
But there’s another kind of flow we’ve been watching too. Earlier in the week, we had active weather alerts, a powerful reminder that sometimes the *Nibi*—the water itself—shows us who's truly in charge here. It’s a good moment to reflect on how deeply we’re connected to the Otonabee and what that means for our resilience as a community.
This is the Electric City — small town, big current. Let's go.
