Mayor Jerry Acchione speaks about many topics in his biweekly interview on the Heart FM Morning Show.
WOODSTOCK - Another Heart FM Morning Show Interview with Mayor Jerry Acchione took place.
This morning, many topics were discussed, including a battery storage facility that is in the works for Oxford County. Mayor of Woodstock Jerry Acchione says Boralex is the company that is behind the project, which will be located in the quarry near the 230 Truck Stop. Acchione talks about the planning behind the project.
"It's actually in South-West Oxford, but we've been working together because it's going to run power for the city of Woodstock if we have blackouts, and it's going to power the entire city for upwards of eight hours at a time."
The City is working on the planning and zoning of the land, while the province, Hydro One, and the power companies would work together to pay for the project. Acchione says the project is scheduled to be operational next summer. He also talked about changes that are coming to Southside Aquatic Centre. Acchione says more space will be coming.
"So, we're adding about 2,000 square feet to Southside Aquatic Center for the change rooms."
Acchione says this will give more capacity for people to change at the Aquatic Centre and enjoy the pool. If you would like to listen to the full interview with Jerry Acchione from the Morning Show, you can listen below.
