The controversial Spruce Lake Industrial Park expansion in Saint John’s Lorneville community has passed its final hurdle.
The certificate of determination, issued by the province on Wednesday,
includes more than 20 conditions that the proponent must follow.
I think this is overall great news for Saint John, and great news for New Brunswick. It's certainly not the the news the the majority of Lorneville residents wanted to hear, but hopefully this development will also mean more resident focussed investments for the community of Lorneville.
Personally, I'm very curious to see what is planned for this coastal portion of the expansion. Will the approval of this expansion lead to a deepwater expansion for Port Saint John? I certainly hope so.
