"Mayor Andrew Black and Councillor Allison Butcher were absent.
In September, Council narrowly defeated a previous motion from Tower that called for the cancellation of the gas plant project with the majority arguing that council did not have the authority to make such a demand.
At Tuesday’s meeting, Tower suggested that opponents of the gas plant were concerned about protecting the area’s quality of life “without the threat to our environment, without a threat to our water or our health.”
In opposing Tower’s motion, Deputy Mayor Estabrooks said that representatives from NB Power would be meeting with council on December 17th."
