Water Treatment Plant Won't Be As Expensive As First Believed

Despite the dire warnings about the growing deficit with the city's pension and the apparent inability of the employee groups to come together on a revised plan to deal with that which will meet the approval of the province, there is some good financial news.

The head of Municipal Operations Paul Groody says the estimated cost of the new water treatment plan on the east side will be 10 to 12 million dollars less than the original estimate of 172 million dollars.
Common Council will also be getting an update tonight on the Environmental Impact Assessment of the project.
