Your City Hall was quiet but the housing market wasn't
Good morning from the coulees — the wind's up, the sky's wide, and Lethbridge has something to say.
It's been a week where the silence from City Hall felt almost louder than usual. The last few days, things have been quieter than a deer grazing near the *Sik-ooh-kotok* (Oldman River) in the early morning, which is a rare thing when city council is usually buzzing like a beehive in spring. The wind’s been pushing hard, kicking up dust over the prairies, and maybe that’s got folks inside keeping to themselves a bit more.
Look, while the official word from City Hall was thin on the ground, the housing market kept moving like the river current.
* Real estate chatter continues, even without new civic data.
* The quiet at City Hall feels like a pause, a deep breath.
* The *napi* (old man winter) chill is still in the air, reminding us of the chinook arches.
It’s like the city is taking a moment to gather itself, but the life of Lethbridge, the buying and selling of homes, that doesn't stop for a quiet week. The market is still a lively place for folks looking to settle down here, despite the lack of official news.
