If you’ve noticed some clear cutting in a wooded area along the McKay Highway west-bound, so have we and here is what we can tell you.
It is prep work to clear the right of way for the Town of Rothesays new water tower.
Town Manager John Jarvie tells CHSJ News, there is some soil testing going on and a portion of this area will be a service road.
Jarvie adds there have been some environmental issues that have slowed down the process of the project but it is full steam ahead.
The deadline to spend the stimulus project funding is the end of March or the municipality is on the hook for the costs.
The towns second water tower will be set-up south of the Riverside golf course on the opposite side of the McKay Highway.
