Your Saint John City Hall was a ghost town this week

Your City Hall was a ghost town, and 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 at Saint John City Hall, it’s been quieter than a Sunday morning down by the Reversing Falls. We were all looking for some fresh civic data, some updates on projects, but the Saint John open data portal? Bare. Empty, right? It's like they packed up all the civic reports and put 'em on the ferry to Grand Manan.

### What Didn't Happen This Week

* No new city council announcements. * No fresh development permits to chew on. * No updates on the harbour bridge repairs, which always keep us guessing.

Now, I'll tell you what, it's not like the city's standing still. We've had some wild weather, right? Environment Canada's been busy with special statements, and the wind off the Bay of Fundy has been something fierce. It makes you wonder if everyone just stayed home, bundled up, and watched the waves from their windows.

But an empty data portal? That's not ideal for knowing what's cooking down at City Hall. We need that info, right? For the folks living down in the South End to the families out in Millidgeville, what’s happening at City Hall affects us all. We'll keep an eye on it, see if they get things moving again next week.

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