Resort Village of Manitou Beach

Lagoon Expansion

The Resort Village of Manitou Beach council is continuing with the Lagoon Expansion Project that has been in the works since 2007 in which reserve funds were set aside and budgetary and infrastructure planning commenced.

Engineering conceptual plans and design have been ongoing since January of 2008 and geotechnical site assessment was done this summer for test drilling to be completed this season.

Currently the Long Lake REDA staff and Catteral & Wright Engineering are assisting the Village Administration and council in applying for the Building Canada Fund Grant in hope to alleviate the costs of the project on the village.

The new sewage management system is of high priority to the resort village’s community planning and development strategy with regard to environmental and economic sustainability.
