Township Rejects Dam Share No Benefit to Taxpayers
Sixteen Mile Creek Conservation Authority sought cost sharing for the 325000 Kelana dam on the Shah Line Nassagiweyo area. Esquesing council rejected the proposed distribution, predicting few local benefits as levies in Halton area towns total nearly 90 percent of the cost. Tours for rural schools will visit Halton County forests conducted by Ontario officials.
