During the town council meeting held Monday, CAO Julie Fothergill stepped down from the position and will be replaced for now by Jen Early.

Also during the meeting, Mayor Andre Murphy and staff took a look at the budget for The Pas and the surrounding area.

With a possible Tax Increase on the horizon, Murphy looks more toward efficiency rather than cutting back.  He wants to make sure the community is getting the best value towards essentials like groceries, gas, and other living expenses.

Town Council meetings take place on the second and fourth Mondays of the month at 6 pm in the town office chamber.
