Ho Ho Ho... Northern Lights Gets Its Christmas Wishes

Monday, October 15, 2007 07:58 PM

The Northern Lights Festival will get its three Christmas Wishes.

Prince George City Council has approved extending the free parking for downtown to coincide with the start of the festival in late November. (free parking is already offered in the downtown during December)

Council has also approved paying to remove snow from Connaught Hill during the festival, and will add to its budget discussions for next year paying for three flag poles for the site.

The festival will start at the same time as the annual Festival of Trees and will run through January 11th . It is designed to add another "tourism" opportunity for Prince George.

How much will it cost?

Cost? Tut tut. Money is no object. They have a big Scrooge McDuck vault in the basement of city hall. Doncha know?

Great idea. I'm happy that the time has come to actually put lip support for downtown ahead of parking metre revenue. Hoorah! Chester
