Shoreline tender awarded, work to begin immediately

LEAMINGTON — Leamington’s shoreline repairs will begin immediately, now that council has approved the tender from Total Source Contracting out of Essex.

The repairs were approved this past summer, with the tenders going out recently.

Total Source was the lowest of six bids for the work, which includes emergency repairs to the Lake Erie shoreline at four different locations.

Work will be done at 228-238 Cotterie Park Rd., at the intersection of Fox Run Rd. and Lakeshore Drive, at the north end of East Beach Rd and at the extreme western corner of Leamington Lakeside Marina.

Council voted unanimously to accept the tender for $500,000, which comes in under the budgeted amount of $550,000.
