In this report Mr D’Hondt brings forward an updated cost estimate of $1.404 million for repairing Misner Dam; as well as a target date of March 29, 2013 for submitting a final Work Permit application to MNR. Mr D’Hondt will be presenting this update and asking for permission to proceed accordingly at a “Council-in-Committee” hearing to be held this coming Tuesday November 6, commencing at 3 pm. This meeting is open to the public should you care to attend.
Editor’s note: Response to this announcement has not been received favourably by the Friends of Silver Lake. Losing a school, a lake and potentially a medical centre in one year has aroused a sense of cynicism in our populace. The impact on this little town is devastating – one of the milder comments we have received to date in response to the news can summarized as follows:
“If Vallee hasn’t figured out how to repair the Dam in 2 1/2 years get rid of him ….oh sorry he is retained by the County …. the biggest ticket they have got !”
