Bridgewater town council has pre-approved a number of capital projects for their 2013-14 budget, but a detailed design for a skate park was left off the list. Council decided to forgo the matter, instead choosing to bring it up during the budget process. The six projects that were pre-approved include repair to the York Street bridge, land purchase along St. Phillips Street and an IT assessment. Mayor David Walker feels a detailed design for the skate park can wait.
The total amount pre-approved by council is just over $1.1-million in the capital budget.
