Fire

     Due to two recent fire-related tragedies in rural Saskatchewan and Manitoba, the Carlyle Fire Board, R.M. #63, and the Town of Carlyle have extended fire coverage to White Bear First Nations, White Bear Lake Resort, and the Bear Claw Casino. This decision was made prior to the Town Council's Feb. 25 meeting, but it was announced and affirmed at the meeting. This coverage will remain in place until an agreement is reached, which is expected soon.

Airport

     The family of long-serving Carlyle mayor, Ted Brady, have agreed with the proposed sign and formal re-naming of Carlyle's airport. Blair Andrew of Carlyle is currently working on a project that will add new signage to the airport, naming it the 'Ted Brady Municipal Airport'.

Donor's Choice

     Council reviewed the 2014 Carlyle & District Donor's Choice Report. This year's total was $9,001, down from 2013's contributions totalling $9,518.61. Council was pleased to see that donations to two local charities-the District Food Bank and the Carlyle & District Palliative Care Program-have steadily increased since 2010. In 2014, Donor's Choice received contributions of $764 for the District Food Bank and $834 for the Palliative Care Program.

Traffic

     The Town will send a letter to the Mountain Drive property owner most affected by the extension of a no parking zone in the area. Council agreed to the extension due to the possibility of potential collisions on the road's curve.

Sales and Leases

     The Town of Carlyle with R.M.#63 is currently negotiating the sale of a portion of the Carlyle Civic Centre and will be drawing up an agreement.

     The town has also received some enquiries regarding some equipment currently for sale.

     At the request of Champion Technologies, the Town of Carlyle has extended the company's lease.

Meetings

     Council's next budget meeting will be held Wednesday, March 5 at the Carlyle Civic Centre.
