MARC North

The Municipality of Lunenburg has acquired 115 acres of land in the northern part of the County for future park development. Mayor Don Downe made the announcement today
(Tuesday, Sept. 20th) at the Pinehurst Community Hall calling it a major milestone. The land acquired is located just before Guppy's on public highway, Trunk number 10. Downe says the MARC North has been a priority for the Municipality since the Open Space Strategic Plan was adopted back in 2003. He says over the last nine years, properties have been looked at, and it was only recently a piece of property that was affordable and suitable became available.
