More Money For Partridge Island

It's not going to be cheap to find out what the future of Partridge Island will be--but Mayor Mel Norton says the folks at Waterfront Development have determined the breakwater is probably going to be the cheapest option to make it accessible.

Mayor Mel Norton tells CHSJ News the city is kicking in $67,000 and hoping for a similarly-sized contribution from the province to investigate the options.

There's word yet on exactly when the study will be completed. The stone breakwater was constructed back in the 1950s but was never intended to be used by pedestrians.
