Town Identifies Priority Projects

The demolition of the former Rainy Lake Hotel and market square development among priority projects Fort Frances council is hoping the Ontario government can assist with.

The town intends to highlight several projects in a letter as it hopes to take advantage of government interest in light of the recent shutdown of Resolute Forest Products.

Mayor Roy Avis says projects that involve other partners may hold more favour.

Road improvements to the east end of Scott Street and Front street and the acquisition of the tourism bureau among other projects to be highlighted.
