Four out of five of the newly-elected councillors were listening at the back of the room as Pastor David Kennedy of the Salvation Army Community Church opened the last meeting of the 2010-2014 Owen Sound City Council meeting. Kennedy's remarks and prayers of clear gratitude for council members' four years of passionate work and sacrifice on behalf of city residents felt like foreshadowing of what is also expected from the newcomers.

  • With his usual humility, Tim Nicholls Harrison, CEO of the Owen Sound and North Grey Union Public Library accepted the city's congratulations on his award from the Ontario Council of Federation of Literacy by crediting the library community of staff and volunteers.

snow-storm-regOwen Sound - The City of Owen Sound Public Works employees have been plowing most of the night and will continue to do so in an effort to keep all arterial and collector roads clear and passable.

Road conditions along arterial and collector roadways are in fair condition with surface conditions varying between track bare and centre bare. Motorists are reminded to give plows room to do their work and stay well back when following a plow. Do not attempt to pass a plow. If it is necessary to go out, motorists are advised to drive with caution.
