Witless Bay council has awarded a tender for trail upgrades, although the exact nature of the work was not specified.
During last weeks’ public meeting, councillor Ralph Carey motioned that council award the tender for the trail work to Harbour Construction Ltd., in the amount of $12,525, plus HST.
Carey explained the trail runs along the Puffin Centre, and the Town had received Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (ACOA) money for the project.
Councillor Jacob Hayden seconded the motion, and council, excepting councillor Gerard Dunn, who declared a conflict of interest on the matter as he works with the company, voted unanimously in favour of approving the motion.
A timeline for the work was not provided.
