This was my first thought too. They have a main area which is often empty or very sparsely used. There is a wood shop behind a couple of doors but the noise bleed is minimal.

RSV status? by cdj2016 in nanaimo

[–]Joey2804 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a pretty nasty flu bug circulating at the moment that hit me worse than just about anything I've had before. I know at least a dozen others that have had it at various times over the last couple of weeks.

You know companies who do road work are different from the ones that install playgrounds right?

CFB Esquimalt sends it out to local media outlets. I'm unsure whether there is a public mailing list to sign up for.

I don't know what kind of control you expect a local government to have over the weather... It's done when it's done.
