Rest Stop AMO

Three members of Kenora City Council are back in town after spending the past week hob-knobbing with provincial cabinet ministers in thenations capital.

Rory McMillan, Charito Drinkwalter and mayor Len Compton attended the annual Association of Municipalities of Ontario conference in Ottawa.

McMillan says they had generally positive meetings with most ministers, but was disappointed with the response they got from the Minister of Transportation about the development of a rest stop on the Kenora By-Pass.

Earlier this year at the Ontario Good Roads Conference, the province indicated that it would begin a study on the feasitibity of building a rest stop on Highway 17-A.
