In deliberations during Stonewall's rezoning process, a highlight included the resolution of a former potential problem. Here's mayor Lockie McLean.

"One major change that we're so pleased to have done is the change for assisted community living folks," explains McLean. "When they have the need for more accommodations in Stonewall they no longer have to go through a conditional use process that can pit neighbour against neighbour."

McLean says this means folks won't have to beg their children to live in a home of their own, something that when witnessed once, you'd never want to see again. He adds this bylaw changed those conditions to permitted use.
