On today’s show, we talk with Sussex CAO Scott Hatcher about how the newly amalgamated municipality jumped on the chance for federal dollars from the Housing Accelerator Fund. Sussex has received $3.2 million dollars in funding through the fund, while local groups in Tantramar continue to ask municipal council to actively seek provincial and federal funding to support housing growth.
Plus in briefs, the closure of the Wheaton Covered Bridge is indefinite and due to “significant structural issues”, York Street in downtown Sackville will be closed for water work on Wednesday, and the province’s case to dissolve the Anglophone East district council will be heard on November 14.
