Residents on 6th Concession N have resorted to a petition at change.org that states, in part, “Despite these significant challenges, the town council continues to prioritize excessive spending on festivals and parks within the town, disregarding the fundamental need to maintain basic infrastructure on the amalgamated portions of the township, like 6th Concession N. They claim they have no money and the road isn’t slated for reconstruction for 6 years!” 

Listen to Mayor Prue address the concession conditions; unofficial transcript below.

If you walk along the concession roads, people will tell you look at this lousy road especially six and eight. I walked up and down every one of those roads to every one of those houses. Not me individually, but with Nolan and some of the team who are here tonight. We walked through all of those streets and they are in pretty sad shape. And I promised them that we will give the same opportunities to the people who live in the concessions as we do to the downtown and that we will start rebuilding their roads as soon as practicable.

Why hasn’t it been practicable? Money has been spent on pickleball, walking trails in parks, new town vehicles and a list of wants.
