A range of civic themes dominated our list of the five most read items of the week.
By a significant margin, our look at an addition of a familiar name to the roster of Management for the City of Prince Rupert owned and operated CityWest generated the most interest.
That item was followed by a few notes from City Council, with a story on a request for an update at a future council session on the city's plans by Operations for the move to the former MacCarthy auto dealership lot.
Members of Prince Rupert City Council also received a Housing Needs Report this week from the Planning Department, a document which sparked a fair bit of discussion on Monday.
The Gitxaala First Nation has partnered with Seaspan for a new marine tug service and our story on an Open House this past week found a good audience.
From the water to the air, our notes on some themes on aviation from a recent Globe and Mail article also generated a strong readership.
From the weeks review however, the most read item of the week was that of some news from City owned CityWest.
