It was a year of engaging news stories in Chester. The municipality had plenty of public feedback on issues including the universal sewer rate and the future of the former elementary school in Gold River-Western Shore. However, renewable energy was the top newsmaker for Warden Allen Webber. He takes pride in having a large scale wind farm in the municipality. He says, “After South Canoe is up and running, we’ll be in a position to generate a million dollars annually outside of traditional taxation so, it’s a big deal to me and it should be to the public.” A wind turbine also started producing revenue for the municipality at the Kaizer Meadow landfill. Webber expects 2015 will be another busy and exciting year for his council and residents.
