What is Next For The Garcelon?

What is the next step for the Garcelon Civic Centre?

 Town Manager John Ferguson tells Tide News some activity will include stockpiling fill, approximately 7 metres high, designed to weigh down a specific area of property, compacting the land, to support the future pool.

He adds, that stockpile mimics years and years of compaction, and the process will take around 2 months to complete.

Project Manager Announced for Civic Center

It's a big step towards our new Civic Center.

Last night, St. Stephen Town Council approved E.A. Farren Limited from Saint John as the Project Management for the Garcelon Civic Center, for a price just over $439 thousand dollars.

Town Manager John Ferguson says there were 6 companies who applied for the position.

He says E.A. Farren had the lowest price with no potential for cost overruns.
