Your new ice cream bicycle means summer is here
Good morning from the island — we're still here, the orcas were spotted at Active Pass, and honestly, life is fine.
Well, here's the thing: while the rest of the country frets about real estate podcasts and market accessibility — the Canada Real Estate Association's (CREA) latest updates seem preoccupied with the abstract — Victoria City Hall is quietly making sure we have our priorities straight. And what are those priorities, you ask? Ice cream, apparently.
### New Flavors Rolling In
City Hall has issued two new business licenses, both to HAZELS ICE CREAM LTD, for bicycle vendor operations. These licenses, #40784 and #40447, allow them to operate as mobile businesses throughout Victoria. It's a small detail, but it speaks to the rhythm of life here. You know summer is truly arriving when new ice cream bikes are hitting the streets. It's a gentle hum of commerce, isn't it?
Also, for those with furry friends, the Downtown Veterinary Clinic at 736 Caledonia Ave (License #22734) has secured its professional veterinarian license. And if you're looking for a different kind of buzz, ARCADIA, a new amusement centre, has opened its doors at 707 Johnson St with license #48095. It seems Victoria is slowly but surely adding to its charm, one bike, one pet clinic, and one arcade at a time. This focus on small, local businesses is, dare I say, quite 'post-haste' in its own way.
Keep an eye out for those ice cream bikes as the weather warms. You'll likely spot them near Beacon Hill Park, perhaps, or trundling along the Inner Harbour as the float planes land.
