Transporting Rock Leads To Cost Overruns For LCLC

There have been some cost overruns related to work on the Lunenburg County Lifestyle Centre. Change orders have affected the budget after additional money was spent on transporting a large quantity of rock material from the construction site. The slate management budget is believed to be over-budget by about $294,000. However, Municipality of Lunenburg mayor Don Downe says there are contingency funds in place for the $33.5-million project. He says things happen when building a new facility.



Overall, Downe says the rainy-day fund has kept the project on budget.
