Why is Saint John City Hall so quiet right now?

Your City Hall has been *too* quiet this week.

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 down at City Hall has been... well, it’s been a little *too* quiet for my liking, you know? Usually, when there's not a lot of noise, that's when you start to wonder what's really happening behind the scenes. We haven't seen much in the way of new development permits or big announcements. It's mostly been a "wait and see" kind of deal, which always makes a Saint Johner a bit antsy.

I'll tell you what, it feels like everyone's just holding their breath down on Charlotte Street. Are they brewing up something big, or just giving us a bit of a breather before the next wave hits? Either way, I'm keeping my ear to the ground.

* No significant new civic data released. * Development permits have been notably absent from the public eye. * General sense of anticipation and quiet among city officials.

For folks here in Saint John, this quiet spell means we gotta stay vigilant. When things are calm, that's often when the biggest changes are being planned, right? Keep an eye out.

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