Margaree Airstrip Community Survey Launched

The Municipality of Inverness County is seeking input on the future use of municipally owned property located at 604 Big Intervale Road, Margaree Valley, currently the site of the Margaree Airstrip.

Located in District 2 (Margaree/Saint Joseph du Moine), the property has been the focus of recent engagement efforts with District 2 Councillor Blair Phillips hosting two community meetings which included discussions with residents about their ideas for the future of the site.

To gather further input on the future use of the site, the Municipality has launched a short, anonymous survey for District 2 residents. It will take only a few minutes to complete and provides another opportunity for community members to share their vision for the property.

The survey will remain open until Friday, September 12.

Take the survey online here.

Paper copies are also available.
