  • A look at the agenda for tonight’s Tantramar council meeting which includes rural streetlighting, a new pole banner policy, a $15k contract for a corporate plan, and a $100k contract for water treatment pump installation and refurbishment.
  • Tantramar council is being asked to approve an easement across its Mount View Road quarry property to make way for NB Power’s high voltage transmission line expansion.
