The hot topic of amalgamation between Quispamsis and Rothesay is about to heat up again.
Quispamsis Councillor Gerry Maher wants town council to set aside money in the 2011 budget to conduct a study on the pros and cons of amalgamation.
He tells CHSJ News amalgamation could be on the ballot in the 2012 municipal vote and people need to know the pros and cons.
Councillor Maher will be making a motion for the money at November 16th council meeting. He says early estimates put the cost of such a study at around 60-thousand dollars and hopes Rothesay council will enact a similar motion in the near future.
