Library Vote Expected Tonight

A decision to proceed with construction of the new library and technology centre could be made by Fort Frances town councillors tonight.

A proposed construction contract with Aurora Construction comes back to the table at tonight's council meeting.

Councillors rejected the same contract back in April, but a recent influx of more than $2 million dollars in federal and provincial grant money is expected to help give the project the green light.

Construction costs were last estimated at nearly $4.7 million dollars.
