The town of Pictou is putting five thousand dollars towards a Municipal Innovation Project.
The project is part of a provincial initiative to develop collaborations between municipal units of similar size.
The proposed study would involve Pictou and the towns of Stellarton, Trenton and Westville: each would put in $5,000, with the province contributing $80,000. Deputy Mayor Dan Currie says that finding cost savings through co-operation with the other towns should more than cover the 5K investment.
