Work on the new Renfrew Town Square is “back on track” according to the Town of Lake Cowichan’s superintendent of public works. Originally, the town square was supposed to have been completed by the end of June, with the likely finish date now the middle of July. But that is good news for the town’s council who were beginning to fear the work may not be completed until the end of July. “Basically the work is back on track,” said superintendent Nagi Rizk at the Finance and Administration Committee meeting held at the town hall last Tuesday night. Rizk confirmed that work is about to commence on the new stage at the town square and then that will move onto paving. Apex Landscaping is the company * % working on the town square, visible next $ to Vancouver Island Regional Library in Lake Cowichan. “They are working on walls and seating and the paving is about to start,” said Rizk. “This week we should start to see it all taking shape. Mid July is a safe Mayor Ross Forrest completion date.” Despite being saddened initially that the work had fallen behind, Mayor Ross Forrest was delighted to hear the positive news from Rizk. “I’m glad it’s back on track and going well,” said Forrest at the meeting. “It’s starting to take shape and then people will beELANTRA able to see what it looks L like.” % a$ plan in Coun.
