City of Melfort holds first in-person council meeting since March
After two regular council meetings, and one special council meeting all held on Zoom, the City of Melfort is back holding in-person council meetings.
The first since the March 7 meeting was held on Monday, June 15 at the Melfort Council Chambers at City Hall. Mayor Rick Lang said the Re-Open Saskatchewan Plan allowing indoor gatherings of 15 people gave them the ability to gather in person again.
“I didn’t find it difficult one way or another,” he said. “But, it’s easier to have the conversation in person, but it has to follow the rules of the Re-Open Saskatchewan Plan.”
Some councillors pushed for a return to in-chamber meetings. Lang said in-person meetings run more smoothly.
