New constables
Dustin MacIntyre who joined the Coronation RCMP detachment in November came with Sgt. Darcy McGunigal to meet council. MacIntyre comes from Prince Edward Island and this is his first posting after graduating from the academy. He will be at the Coronation detachment for four years. Another new officer to the detachment is Brenda MacDonald, from Pictou, Nova Scotia, who started her position on April 11. “Officers have a four year limited duration but they can stay longer if they like,” said McGunigal. McGunigal reported to council about the RCMP’s activities during the 2014 year and about the upcoming 2015 year for the detachment. Turn to Focused, Pg 4

Hanna resident receives Governor General’s Award
If it wasn’t for the dogs!
The Bylaw Enforcement report for March was presented to council and while there was one parking call that took 15 minutes and one cat complaint that took 45 minutes, the majority of time (four hours) was spent on dog calls and working with owners. The total numbers on the report showed that the animal calls took a total of six hours.
in land of which the inheritor has unqualified ownership and power of disposition). With fee simple properties they would have the option to tear down the structure on it. Through discussion it was decided that the Town would take ownership of a property that had a tenant there who was renting the property and the rental income would go to the town upon ownership. CAO Sandra Kulyk stated that she would be asking the assessor to come back and review the remaining properties as this needs to be done, providing the example of a property that when viewed from an aerial shot, proved to be built crooked and is actually taking up space on the property next to it, making that property owners garage is also off property lines. Council decided that the Town will take title of the other properties until the assessor comes and provides feedback, then they will review what to do with the properties. Kulyk stated that council will deal with all the properties at that time and not allow them to be left and not dealt with, as properties have been in the past.
