Growth on Baerents Island

Mayor’s Report: Andro Postmael challenged me for mayor. I managed to retain my seat by one vote. Evelt Aerts was defeated by Danningsley Aerts. The politics of the town are divided between the ‘old guard’ of most of the original settlers and their children. Postmael is continuing to build his new commercial and agricultural hub on the island. A new large house, rivalling the mayor’s residence, should be completed early in the year. Malvia Postmael’s seat is up for re-election, but no one has indicated they will challenge him. We had another good harvest last year, and we traded for food to bolster our surplus. We also welcomed three new families to the town. Stability in the region continues, with our growth coinciding with the growth of many settlements in New York.
