A closed meeting has been called at 4pm to consider advice that is subject to solicitor client privilege .

Kincardine, Arran Elderslie and Huron Kinloss are working together to bring Natural Gas to the region.

A confidential Request for information process in the spring produced several high quality responses from potential partners for the distribution utility in the South Bruce area.

A preferred partner was expected to be selected by the end of summer.

The project's estimated cost is $100-million dollars.
