Lots of weeds!

I think quite often these "land use dreams" are in reality thought up by some eager planner and presented to the county councillors as a Mom and Apple pie sort of thing? Like how can you be such a dinosaur not to agree?
Then the real world of politics sets in? If you follow the money trail you usually find out how the real world works?
The municipality broke its own rules...so why not everyone else! Now is it going to be "Katie bar the door"?...I don't think so!
Still it is refreshing that business as usual is alive and well in Red Deer county!
Incidently: Land prices in gasoline alley(south of Red Deer) are going through the roof! One guy told me a 3 acre parcel sold there last week for $600K/acre!

I don't know where it's going to end cowman, but someday, this boom will slow down, and there will be a whole bunch of people wondering how they are going to stay afloat !!!

Living like there is no tomorrow seems to be the norm these days !!

Well coppertop, I'm not sure where it will end...but the ride is sure nice while it happens!
Now I suspect,with a few bumps on the road to be sure, that it really isn't going to end? Not in our liftime?
Maybe I am naive, but all I see is the world wants energy...and we have it!
Eventually the "smart boys" will figure out some different way to provide that...but I suspect you and me won't have to worry about that?
