Monday’s Agenda is a 342 pages and there are a few hot topics on it. Tune into our Essex Ontario YouTube Channel at 6:00 to watch the discussion. The letter regarding ELK Energy from the Town of Kingsville is on our agenda and also I noticed that the Integrity commissioner Robert Swayze has billed the town for services rendered up until June 2021, $30803.80. That is a lot of money!
