The town of Lunenburg is looking to its municipal neighbour to help cover costs of its recreational facilities. Mayor Rachel Bailey along with the town's recreation director have approached the Municipality of Lunenburg for $30,000. Bailey says $20,000 would help the town with an anticipated reduction of $200,000 in arena revenue in the coming year because of the opening of the Lunenburg County Lifestyle Centre. She says the financial request isn't based on a formula, but a number that might work.Bailey says roughly 65 per cent of facility users are from the municipality and they're hoping to receive money as a contribution to help residents who benefit from them. The other $10,000 will go towards improving the condition of the town's skateboard park. Council didn't make a decision on the matter and is expected to send the matter to budget deliberations.
