Further Information on North Regional Forcemain Proposal
The Municipality’s intention in providing preliminary information on the North Forcemain was to provide information ONLY based on a specific request as to the costs of a sewer system for a northern subdivision.
The Municipality has never forced a sewer system onto a subdivision and has only moved forward with a proposal for sewer servicing based on a majority request from the property owners in the subdivisions. The information provided on the North Regional Forcemain was strictly for information.
Administration hopes the explanation provided clarifies the Municipality’s intent in bringing the information forward at this time.
