Our community organization has a tourism website that has been working fine for us.
Thompson Spirit Way (http://www.thompsonspiritway.ca)

Today, on my iMac OSX10.6.8, it doesn't load on Safari 5.1.7. There's a spinning arrow in the menu bar forever. All other websites load fine.

I tried loading it on Firefox. The Home page came up after 3-4 minutes. It takes another 4-5 minutes to go to another web page.

I've rebooted. Repaired permissions.Reset Safari.
What could be the problem?

It's not Safari - it's the web site.
I tried Camino which is Mozilla based and also Chrome.
That site takes forever to come up on either browser.
Haven't tried Safari, but for a web site to take several minutes to come up is ridiculous - nobody is going to wait that long.
Maybe Safari just times out.

But what needs fixing is that web site not your Mac or Safari.

Our web designer fixed it on a long weekend...

Looks like I may need to repair / rebuild the mysql database, i've cut its overall size down by 75% but I doesn't seem to have sped the site up much.
The site is still loading fine, its just very slow.. due to what im thinking is a database structural issue.

We're happy again! :-)
