Plans For Public Park In Petite Rivere Moving Ahead

Support for a public park in Petite Riviere is growing but more work is needed before it becomes a reality. The Municipality of Lunenburg is prepared to kick-in $30,000 to help develop a long desired park for the area. That money would compliment a $25,000 investment already announced by the Nova Scotia government. Mayor Don Downe says remediation work needs to take place on the site where the park would be located. He says the community also needs to fund raise.



The park is expected to cost in the area of $90,000. It would be located at the former Covey Island Boatworks store which was destroyed by fire.
