Burns Lake Councilors recently discussed the future of communal roads at a recent meeting.
Councilors are looking at different options to fix much-needed roads without running up the bill.
Mayor Luke Strimbold says they need to find a way to make roads last as long as possible.
“We can do pot hole repairs and patching, but right now we’re doing 300 – 600 metres a year at $30,000,” he says, “that’s just not sustainable, so we need to figure out our long-term plan.”
The meeting concluded with Council requesting more information from staff on ways to increase road life expectancy.
