Your City Hall week was a whole mood, honestly!
Saskatoon — seven bridges, two rivers, and something happening you haven't heard about yet. My darlings, this past week at City Hall? We were all over the place, like a toddler with a new toy!
Okay, so this is actually wild. We started the week talking about the new city budget, and let me tell you, the numbers were doing more gymnastics than the Saskatchewan Rush mascot. Then, just as we were all trying to figure out if we could afford another bridge, the *actual* sky decided to fall. We had storms, my dears, and not just one! Saskatoon is a city that will invite you to a farm-to-table dinner and then make you defend the concept of a city for twenty minutes, but even *we* can’t defend against a deluge.
### The Storms Kept Coming
* The budget discussions were as twisty as the river itself, with councillors going back and forth on funding for various projects. * Then the weather decided to join the party, bringing hail and heavy rain that made some streets look like the South Saskatchewan River had decided to expand its territory. * A second round of storms just added to the drama, leaving a lot of us wondering if Mother Nature was making a statement about our infrastructure.
It was a week where City Hall tried to keep its head above water, both metaphorically and literally. For those of us living between Warman Road and Circle Drive, it just meant more detours and hoping our basements held up.
