Council gave final reading to both the Realty Tax By-Law 1877 and Business Tax By-Law 1878 at last night’s council meeting. The approval of these two items provides the go-ahead for the City’s 2009 Financial Plan and Capital Programs.
Some of the more significant projects this year include:
• Water System Pumphouse Renovation – $1.4 million;
• Acres Drive Concrete Surfacing – $1.51 million;
• Industrial Road Concrete Surfacing – $1.85 million; and
• Soccer Park Parking Lot and Access Road Construction – $365,000
As construction on these projects begins, motorists are asked to use extreme caution and, when possible, use alternate routes to avoid construction zones. If you must drive in a construction zone, please slow down and respect workers and machinery.
