One of the things cut by Quispamsis town council in its budget deliberations last weekend was its contribution to Enterprize Saint John.
The councillors approved just half of $112,000 the regional development agency asked for. The Agency’s Chairman Larry Hachey told the Telegraph-Journal not only can they not afford to lose more than $50,000 it might prompt the other municipalities to cut their contributions. Enterprise Saint John gets $700,000 a year from the city, Quispamsis, Rothesay, Grand Bay-Westfield and St. Martin’s.
