You might say it's a mutually beneficial arrangement. The City and the Saint John Port Authority exchanging land for two significant projects: Harbour Cleanup and the construction of the new Diamond Jubilee Cruise Terminal.
Mayor Mel Norton tells CHSJ News a lot of that construction Saint Johners have been noticing has not been road work.
He says a lot of it is the installation of lift stations. Norton adds by the end of this year or early next year 100 million dollars worth of investment will be complete meaning all of our wastewater will be treated.
Port CEO Jim Quinn and Mayor Mel Norton took part in a tree planting at the perimeter of the port near the new lift station at Lower Cove.
