" $ 5 6 " - * 5 4  r  / & 8 4 LAST TRY AGAINST HIGHWAY OVERPASS PLAN

&/#3&'r#3*&'4 BUDGET 2021 Unless there is some drastic change in either next year’s projected operation costs or a sudden windfall of provincial or federal funds, East Hawkesbury Township council will approve the 2021 budget during its December 14 session. A one-per-cent increase in property taxes is part of next year’s budget. This is a change from past years when the annual budget has featured a two-per- cent tax increase, and reflects council’s desire to avoid adding financial stress to property owners during the pandemic. – Gregg Chamberlain ROAD SAFETY PREPARATION The roads have been bare and dry most of the time so far this December but the latest forecasts call for snowy weather soon. Motorists are reminded to make sure to have their vehicles winterized, including switching to snow tires.

Les Comtés unis de Prescott et Russell tenteront une fois de plus de convaincre le ministère des Transports de modifier leur plan de réaménagement du passage supérieur de Hawkesbury entre la route de comté 17 et la route 34. Les élus locaux craignent que le nouvel aménagement augmente le risque d’accidents de la route sur le viaduc. —photo d’archives
