Rapport d’analyse de marché Le conseil municipal de Clarence-Rockland a approuvé la réception d’un rapport de consultant sur l’analyse du marché des terrains industriels. Le conseil a maintenant ordonné à l’administration de préparer une politique, avec l’aide d’un professionnel, pour assurer une quantité suffisante de terrains industriels municipaux disponibles dans la région de Clarence-Rockland pour le développement. – Gregg Chamberlain Ward 1 Coun.

Council directed administration to conti- nue discussions with Sanscartier about his proposal and try to work out the details more for a later report at a future meeting. During a later point in the committee of the whole session, several councillors wondered if Bourget, Clarence Creek, or Cheney-Hammond might also serve as a location for a country-western festival as
