For the Cherry Brook Zoo to thrive, it needs year to year sustainable funding.
That word from the zoo's biggest supporter on Common Council, Gary Sullivan.
He tells CHSJ News Trevor Holder, who's running for the Conservatives in Saint John Portland, and Liberal candidate Danny Joyce both support having the zoo become part of the Regional Facilities Commission which falls under provincial legislation.
Being included in the Regional Facilities Commission guarantees funding from all four municipalities in greater Saint John.
