Vancouver politics were busy in 2025 and with an October 2026 municipal election approaching, things won't be quieting down any time soon. Redeye collective member Ian Mass brings us his New Year's City Beat report.

As health nuts, we obsess over calories, chemicals and sunlight, but we rarely think about two things we consume more than anything else on earth: air and water.  This is Part 2 of a two part series on clean air and clean water, and it may change how you look at every glass you drink, every meal you cook, and every shower you take. Because our modern water is no longer natural. Municipal/city water systems disinfect water just enough to prevent infectious disease, but not enough to protect you from heavy metals, forever chemicals (PFAS), pharmaceutical residues, pesticides, microplastics, and industrial runoff. Add aging infrastructure, lead pipes, agricultural contamination, and chemical disinfectants like chlorine and chloramines, and what reaches your tap is often far from clean. Even worse, contaminants don't boil out - meaning the water you cook with can concentrate toxins rather than remove them. And because your skin is your largest organ, you're absorbing these chemicals not just when you drink water, but when you shower and bathe. In other words, we no longer live in environments our biology was designed for. We drink, cook, and bathe in chemically treated water, and then wonder why inflammation, hormone disruption, fertility issues, neurological disease, and chronic illness are exploding. This episode breaks down what's actually in your water, where it comes from, why the system is broken, and what you can realistically do about it   TOPICS DISCUSSED: Why modern tap water is contaminated, even when it meets "safety" standards The most common toxins found in drinking water (PFAS, heavy metals, pharmaceuticals, microplastics) Why boiling water does not remove contaminants and can make things worse How water infrastructure, lead pipes, and industrial runoff pollute your supply The hidden health impact of chlorine and chloramines on the gut, skin, thyroid, and immune system Why showering in unfiltered water can be as harmful as drinking it How microplastics enter the body through bottled water, cans, and hot-filled plastics The truth about bottled water vs. filtered water Which water filtration methods work and which are mostly a waste of money Why reverse osmosis is considered the gold standard for water purification How to remineralize purified water safely and intelligently How to check what's actually in your local water supply Why clean water is a foundational step in healing not an optional upgrade   More from AquaTru CLICK HERE to get big discounts on your AquaTru Website: aquatruwater.com     Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

Logró su aprobación como una reforma de ley, silenciosamente. Sin aspavientos, sin peroratas ni agrios enfrentamientos políticos. Es más, se votó por unanimidad. Y si se cumple y se implementa como debería de ser, implicaría, ni más ni menos, que un cambio cualitativo en nuestro desarrollo. Se trata de una reforma al Código Municipal que incorpora el cambio climático en la gestión de riesgo y la restauración del equilibrio en la tierra; una nueva etapa para la gestión territorial y el desarrollo sustentable en Costa Rica. ¿De qué se trata?

L'Aeroport i Sant Pau de Riu-Sec, en el punt de mira del govern municipal

Chris Gilbert intrinsically believes that when residents feel seen, heard, and cared for, they become more supportive and trusting of their government.  He argues that "customer service" is the transactional act of doing what needs to be done for the customer. However, municipal hospitality is centered around how you make residents feel during and after the delivery of services to them. The Springfield Township administrator launched Municipal Hospitality Advisors after a fateful celebratory birthday dinner with his wife whereupon he was blown away by the actions of the restaurant owner. That experience and the general approach of the hospitality industry towards providing value and memorable experiences to their guests formed the foundation for Gilbert's trainings.

After a year marked by early uncertainty and underperformance, the municipal bond market has rallied, offering investors attractive yields and renewed opportunity as 2025 draws to a close. In this episode, host John P. Bryson welcomes Adam for a timely discussion on what's driving performance in the municipal bond market. Adam shares his perspective on how supply dynamics, investor flows, and sector trends are shaping the market. He also discusses why entry points matter and how active management can add value in today's environment. Here's a sneak peek into the conversation: Why should investors have tax-free municipal bonds in their portfolio?Adam: Municipal bonds work well for investors who are looking for tax-free income. Adding stability to your portfolio using municipal bonds helps offset the volatility of equity holdings. Especially when it may seem like we're heading toward a slowdown, these instruments tend to perform slightly better than other fixed-income instruments. Municipal bonds help provide a long-term income stream for investors.What have been the major developments in the municipal bond market in 2025?Adam: We started the year with weak performance, with municipal bonds underperforming corporates and Treasuries. There was an excess supply, over and above what we saw in 2024. This was driven by delayed infrastructure projects, which finally got funded, and costs went up. In the past two to three months, flows have improved, and returns are looking solid. Supply and demand have lined up. We expect solid returns in November and December, with good flows and lower supply offering support. What are the biggest opportunities in the municipal bond market today?Adam: The municipal bond market is generally offering attractive yield levels currently. We like the intermediate to long space because the curve is steep and income is high, but we're avoid going too long due to volatility. Credit spreads within the municipal bond market have widened, so there's room for tightening. Lastly, we also see value in bonds subject to Alternative Minimum Tax, low-coupon bonds, and sectors like airports, which tend to issue at wider spreads and have strong fundamentals.

But they're just as likely to be hanging at your local food court or DMV. Today, we're talking about retail and municipal hauntings.

How Will Ovivo Rebuild to Full Size in 10 Years After the Ecolab Deal?

The full transcript for this conversation and many others can be found at www.statecraft.pub.Today we're joined by David Schleicher. David is Professor of Property and Urban Law at Yale Law School, and an expert in local government law, land use, finance, and urban development.I found David's book, In a Bad State: Responding to State and Local Budget Crises, a fascinating and readable primer on municipal debt: what it is, how it grows, and how cities can face up to it.Municipal pension funding may not sound like the most fascinating topic. I hope this conversation illustrates two things. First, how our pension systems work matters to all of us — whether or not we are enrolled in a municipal pension. Second, these questions go to the heart of how our cities are run, why they fail, and how they can be improved.We discuss:* Why are so many municipal pension funds in debt?* Why New York City went bankrupt and Chicago didn't* Moral hazard in municipal credit* The practice of "universal log rolls"* How the federal government should respond to local bankruptcies This is a public episode.

Send us a textNick Cloutier, current assessor for the Town of Scarborough, and soon-to-be Waterville city manager, joins Rebecca Lambert and Amanda Campbell to provide an update on the Legislature's Real Estate Property Tax Relief Tax Force.  Appointed by the Speaker of the House, Nick represents the interests of Maine's tax assessors on the task force. In this episode, he outlines a range of solutions, from amending current programs such as the Property Tax Fairness Credit, to deliver immediate relief to homeowners, to long-term reforms requiring constitutional amendments.  Among these proposals is the introduction of a tiered mil rate system.  Nick also urges listeners to share their perspectives with the task force before it begins to draft its official recommendations.

Top Stories for November 18th Publish Date: November 18th PRE-ROLL: BUFORD HOLIDAY FESTIVAL From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Tuesday, November 18th and Happy Birthday to astronaut Allan Shepard I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. The Sandwich Project celebrates milestones and welcomes new executive director Norcross receives international award for branding efforts Elementary and middle school cellphone bans proving popular, as debate moves to high schools All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: Kia Mall of Georgia STORY 1: The Sandwich Project celebrates milestones and welcomes new executive director Before the latest government shutdown even hit, the Sandwich Project was already out there—quietly, relentlessly—feeding Atlanta’s hungry. This grassroots nonprofit, born in the chaos of 2020, has now delivered over 2.2 million sandwiches across metro Atlanta. Two million sandwiches. Let that sink in. And now, they’ve got their first executive director: Christine Cooper Nowicki, a longtime volunteer with a heart for service. “This wasn’t something I saw coming,” she admits, “but food insecurity has always been personal for me.” Every week, volunteers—families, Girl Scouts, Rotary Clubs—make 8,000 sandwiches. It’s messy, beautiful, and life-changing work. Learn more at thesandwichproject.org. STORY 2: Norcross receives international award for branding efforts Norcross just snagged a Silver Davey Award—pretty impressive, right? Out of 2,000+ global entries, this small-but-mighty city was recognized for its killer branding and communication efforts in the Government and Municipal category. The secret sauce? A partnership with Lawrenceville’s Accent Creative Group, the creative minds behind Norcross’ ads, event logos, social media, and more. “Our brand isn’t just a look,” said Mayor Craig Newton. “It’s how we tell our story.” The Davey Awards celebrate big ideas on small budgets, and Norcross nailed it—showcasing a community alive with culture, creativity, and connection. Not bad for a little city with big heart. STORY 3: Elementary and middle school cellphone bans proving popular, as debate moves to high schools Georgia high schools might soon say goodbye to cellphones, following the success of bans already in place at some schools. Starting next fall, a new law will require elementary and middle schools to lock up phones during the day. High schools aren’t included—yet. But with 92% of teachers supporting the idea, according to a Georgia Southern University survey, the push is gaining momentum. At Lakeside High in DeKalb, Principal Susan Stoddard said banning phones was a game-changer: “You heard kids talking again—actual conversations in the hallways.” Still, some parents worry about emergencies. Lawmakers? Divided. But this debate isn’t over. Not even close. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets 7- Sugar Hill Holiday STORY 4: Agency seeks more power to enforce campaign finance law Georgia’s election finance watchdog wants sharper teeth, and lawmakers might just hand them over. The State Ethics Commission says it needs more power to investigate campaign finance violations—like the $300,000 fine it slapped on Stacey Abrams’ nonprofit earlier this year for failing to disclose millions in donations and spending. Sen. Bill Cowsert, who’s running for attorney general, is leading the charge. “We need transparency,” he said. “Big money shouldn’t dominate politics.” But critics call it political theater, especially with Fulton DA Fani Willis now in the committee’s crosshairs. Meanwhile, the Ethics Commission says it’s hamstrung without stronger subpoena powers. The fight’s far from over. STORY 5: Corps of Engineers says below normal rainfall could make Lake Lanier hazardous Lake Lanier’s water level is holding steady—for now. As of last week, it sat at 1,065.51 feet, just a hair above the historic median of 1,065.39 feet for this time of year. But here’s the catch: rainfall’s been scarce lately, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is keeping a close watch. “The dry spell could mean lower levels ahead,” said Dustin Gautney from the Corps. And with Lanier’s hidden hazards—tree stumps, old roadbeds, even remnants of submerged towns—boaters and swimmers need to stay sharp. The advice? Wear your life jacket, watch for obstacles, and stay safe out there. We’ll be right back. Break 3: Sugar Hill Ice Skating Rink Final STORY 6: Loganville shooting suspect arrested in Lawrenceville A chaotic Friday afternoon unfolded as a shooting at a Loganville CVS ended with an arrest in downtown Lawrenceville. Loganville police issued a BOLO alert around 4 p.m. for a vehicle tied to a “serious incident” at the CVS on Atlanta Highway, where a woman had been shot in the head. Critical condition. No name released. Lawrenceville’s FLOCK cameras flagged the car near the Square. Officers swarmed West Crogan Street, shields up, and arrested the driver without a fight. The suspect’s name? Still under wraps. The victim? Airlifted to Grady. It’s a mess, and the investigation is ongoing. STORY 7: State raises red flags in Gwinnett Schools' CCRPI report Gwinnett County Public Schools is celebrating some wins in college and career readiness—but the state’s latest report card tells a more complicated story. Sure, GCPS outperformed Georgia in seven areas, mostly in elementary and middle schools. But high schools? They’re lagging. The only bright spot there is content mastery. And across all levels, the district is struggling to close gaps, especially in English Language Arts. Red flags? Plenty. Targets missed for multiple demographics—African-American, Hispanic, economically disadvantaged, and more. Progress scores for high schools dropped by over 10 points. The takeaway? There’s work to do. Wins are great, but gaps can’t be ignored.

On this week's episode of Multifamily Mastery, John Casmon interviews Christopher Tiessen. They dig into how mechanical “puzzle parking” multiplies stall counts on tight sites, helping developers hit parking ratios, reclaim rentable square footage, and preserve project feasibility. Chris explains safety redundancies, EV-charging integrations, and where these systems pencil best—from New Jersey and California to student housing in Columbus and land-locked mountain markets. He also shares real-world outcomes, costs per space, and why educating municipalities is often the unlock for approvals.
