Homeowners in Oakville Acres can breath a small sigh of relief now that Rothesay Council has awarded the tender for a sewer system to be built.

Work on installing the Clearwater Sewer System should begin right away. People living in the area have been dealing with flooding problems for four years now.

Mayor Bill Bishop says they are working on the acquiring land for a retention pond but cautions sometimes it takes a while for people to agree to a decent price.

Bishop says homeowners will not have to pay to hook up to the new Clearwater Sewer System, they will only be responsible for restoring their lawns afterwards.
