In the absence of Mayor Davison, Deputy Mayor Vandewal chaired the meeting.
By-laws
Two uncontested by-laws were passed. One related to the Township assuming the roads in a recently completed subdivision in Storrington District, and the other permitted the creation of two new lots in the hamlet of Sunbury.
Rock Lake Bridge Reconstruction
Public Works Manager Mark Segsworth reported on plans for the reconstruction of the Rock Lake bridge, on Desert Lake Road, just east of Road 38. The tender has been awarded to the lowest of the ten bidders, Len Corcoran Excavating Ltd, for $876,654, which meets the budget for the project. The highest bid, from a Toronto company, was $500,000 above the one chosen.
The work, which will take place over three or four months this summer, will include widening the bridge, adding a new dry hydrant, and “architectural enhancements”. This project will also improve the navigable waterway between Rock and Howes Lakes.
Newspaper Delivery in Township
Deputy Mayor Vandewal opened a discussion on the complaints received about unwanted newspapers piling up along township roadways, asking, “Why can’t they be delivered to our mailboxes, like the Frontenac News?”
