PICTOU – A county councillor wants to know what the municipality will be getting when it takes ownership of East Pictou Middle School in 2019.
Coun. Don Butler said renovations at Frank H. MacDonald School are ongoing and the completion date has been extended to September 2019 so we wants to know what kind of shape East Pictou will be in after another school year.
He said he has heard that there is currently some water leakage in the main building.
“Can the school board do an assessment so we know in advance of getting the keys and we know what kind of state the building is in?” he asked during a property services meeting Monday.
Council agreed to make such a request to the Chignecto-Central Regional School Board.
