The Charlotte County Civic Center committee is very pleased to say it believes this is the first time a community of the size of St Stephen has raised 3.5-million dollars for a civic project.
The chair of the board of directors -- Richard Fulton -- says pre-liminary site work for the 18-million dollar complex will begin in late summer and be completed by 2011.
Last Tuesday the federal and provincial governments announced just over 12-million dollars in funding for the project while St Stephen council is committed to 2.1-million dollars.The name of the Center is Garcelon Civic Center.
