Weekly Headlines of Clarence-Rockland (2020-08-27)
The municipalities of Clarence-Rockland and The Nation are moving forward with the drinking water distribution project. The agreement between the two municipalities is for a period of 20 years with an extension option.
The Mayor of Clarence-Rockland, Guy Desjardins, says he is proud of this historic agreement with The Nation. He explains that the Ottawa River is an excellent source of water supply and that this project will generate additional revenues for the municipality.
The project consists of installing approximately 10 km of water main between the Cheney water reservoir along Indian Creek Road and The Nation's existing water treatment plant in Limoges. This project will provide better service to the citizens of both municipalities and allow for growth.
Construction of the new water line from Cheney to Limoges is scheduled to begin in the summer of 2021 with an estimated construction cost of $10 million. The municipality of The Nation will provide an initial $2.6 million to Clarence-Rockland for the existing infrastructure.
