Washouts forces Dysart to defer resurfacing of Indian Point Road to 2018

Three washouts in Dysart this year are stretching the municipal budget.

At a recent public meeting, council decided to defer the resurfacing of Indian Point Road until next year.

The $99,650 that was to be spent on Indian Point Road will instead go towards repairing damage from the washouts on West Shore Road, and Moose Lake Road.

Reeve Murray Fearrey says the municipality will surpass the emergency washout budget of $156,500.
