“I can’t tell you where it is,” Losier said. “There are a couple of them.”
“They map it on a grid and look around to see if they have everything they need to safely and responsibly site it,” Losier said.
The former town of Grand Bay has a sewage treatment, but the former village of Westfield, now part of the amalgamated town, does not.
“The best way to protect potable drinking water is to put in sanitary sewer lines,” the mayor said.
“That’s where we are going and that’s why the municipal plan allows for smaller lot sizes because you cannot afford to put sewer in place if you don’t permit smaller lot sizes. You have to have a number of users in it to make it affordable.”
If the engineers’ report indicates that either one of the sites is a possibility, then the town will move onto the next phase of applying to the province for an environmental impact assessment.
