The Town of Nanton has fired up three new committees dedicated to helping the Mayor and Council solve some key problems.

Mayor Jennifer Handley says they're looking for help with their new Water, Recreation and Economic Development Committees.

"We have people in our town, who want to get involved who are hydro-geologists. That have knowledge about infrastructure. We want them at the table. We need to hear from them and hear their perspectives and their ideas."

Handley says using the expertise of residents is a great way to mitigate having limited budgets to hire outside help in dealing with vital issues.
