Witless Bay adopts bevy of new policies

By Mark Squibb

Witless Bay council approved a new donation policy last week, as well as a new records retention and disposal policy, and a new video surveillance policy, as well as a new subdivision development agreement “template.”

The subdivision agreement template was the only item to net any discussion amongst the councillors, with councillor Ralph Carey noting the Town didn’t have one and that such a plan was in its best interest.

Town CAO Jennifer Aspell said the agreement will guide all future subdivision developments.

In other council news, Mills & Wright Landscape Architecture has been contracted to prepare a design and budget estimate for the Lower Pond Lookout at a cost of $5,785 plus HST.

Council had previously submitted a gas tax funding application to pay for that project, amongst others.
