Mayor Cal Huntley and MLA Clarence Pettersen

MLA Clarence Pettersen was at the Hemlock apartments yesterday to make two announcements.  The first was new senior’s apartments on Hemlock Drive.  He says as we age we all want to age with dignity in safe communities close to our families and friends and that’s why they are going to build a new two storey apartment complex at 4 Hemlock Drive right beside the present building.  He says the new complex will be designed to compliment the present complex and it will have 20 accessible units in total with six of them highly accessible and there’ll be two two bedroom units.

Pettersen says tenders are out with work starting in the spring.  Mayor Cal Huntley thanked Pettersen and all those involved noting this is a wonderful announcement for the community.

Pettersen also announced renovations will continue at the Aspen Grove apartments at a cost of 6.1 million dollars.  Phase one started in August with upgrading of all exterior most of which is complete and phase two will include upgrading the water and sewer mains in some buildings and upgrading the underground electrical service between buildings.
