As happened in a
similar vote when held in Grand Bay-Westfield, the local service
districts around Sussex don't want their taxes to go up and have
rejected the proposal to financially support the 8th Hussars Arena in
the town.
The final vote count was 877 against and 449 in favour.
User
fees at the arena are expected to rise dramatically. The arena is
plagued with a shortfall of more than 150 thousand dollars.
