The Town of Antigonish would like to advise residents of construction work being done at Columbus Field as part of the Legion’s Cenotaph Project.

Visitors to the field are asked to be mindful of the work area and to be cautious of equipment and vehicles. Areas surrounded by orange snow fencing are off-limits and people should keep a safe distance.

The playground equipment will still be open for public use.

The Town thanks residents in advance for their cooperation.

An update from the Town of Antigonish regarding the Sewage Treatment Plant:

Two weeks ago, there was a mechanical issue at the Town’s Sewage Treatment Plant at the east end of Main Street. The equipment was replaced mid-last week and the plant has resumed normal operations.  

While the Town does perform regular, scheduled maintenance at the plant, mechanical issues can arise, which may cause a disruption to the process resulting in an odor. This odor is not harmful. It is important to note that due to the nature of the plant, it does take time for the plant to recover and return to its regular processes.  

The Town apologizes for the inconvenience this has caused our community.

Please note that Town Hall will be closed Monday, October 2, 2023 in observance of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. 

Town Hall will return to normal municipal operations Tuesday, October 3, 2023 at 8:30 a.m.

The Town Electric Utility is advising residents of a planned power outage required for equipment upgrades tonight Friday, September 29, 2023.
