Brighton council might be looking at building a water tower in urban Brighton in the near future.
At its meeting tonight, council will see a report from Lakefield Utility Services suggesting that putting up a
water tower, basically an elevated water storage tank, could be less expensive than a second water main from the water plant into town.
Brighton council is considering a second watermain to provide back up water in case the main line breaks.
Tonight, council will decide whether to pay for a feasability report on a water tower.
Meanwhile, There has been a fair bit of discussion around concerns about water quality in Presqu’ile Bay by Brighton council over the past few months.
And, at its meeting tonight, Brighton council will see a long technical report from the Ministry of Environment about its ongoing testing of the water in the bay.
The main conclusion of the report is that there are no serious issues with the water in Presqu’ile Bay.
Brighton council meets tonight at 6:30 at the King Edward Park Community Centre.
