Talk Bridgewater was a quarterly event before the pandemic but up until last week, the events had to be put on hold.
The event is designed to allow residents to meet face-to-face with local government officials to ask questions and raise concerns.
Last Friday, Bridgewater Mayor David Mitchell, Councilor Jennifer McDonald, and Councilor Andrew Tanner returned to the South Shore Centre for the first Talk Bridgewater event in a year.
The event was held in accordance with physical distancing protocols in place and all the participants and hosts were required to wear masks (As is everyone inside the South Shore Centre).

The Municipality of the District of Lunenburg wants to be included in the Town of Bridgewater’s transit plan and they have now officially made the inquiry.
MODL council voted in favor of writing a letter to Bridgewater requesting the extension of the Public Transit Service to Osprey Village (shopping center near Exit 12).
According to Bridgewater Mayor David Mitchell, he’s open to the idea but there are multiple complications.
“When a bus crosses municipal lines (as it would if the bus were to go to Osprey Village) you then are subject to the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board, which limits our flexibility to use our busses as we wish,” Mitchell said.
