Lorette council defies referendum on sewer lagoon project
The R M of Tache council votes to raise taxes for relocating a sewage lagoon near Landmark, despite a referendum rejection by Lorette voters last October. A $496 000 tax hike funds the project with $1 100 000 total, grants cover the rest, while opponents say it could be fixed for $85 000. Critics decry the move as democratic erosion and warn of legal challenges.
