City issues reminder for contractors from Watson Island work
It's not clear if the Legal Notice of the last week spotted in the back pages of the weekly paper is reason for celebration; or something that may require some further illumination from Prince Rupert City Council, with the City issuing a Notice of Completion for the Watson Island Demolition Project.
The Legal notice which was released last week notes that as of June 15th 2020, a Certificate of Completion, or court order to that effect, was issued with respect to a contract between the City of Prince Rupert and JMX Contracting Incorporated.
That in connection to an improvement on land at the Watson Island site, related to the provision of demolition and recycling services.
As part of the advisory, it's noted that "All persons entitled to claim a lien under the Builders Lien Act and who performed work or supplies material in connection with, or under the contract are warned that the time to file a claim of lien may be abridged and Section 20 of the Act should be consulted"
The details of note from the Builders Lien Act can be reviewed here.
The JMX Group is currently navigating creditor protection process.
While the Mayor made note of the three year anniversary for the Watson Island demolition work earlier this year, City Council rarely speaks to the details related towards past work and the cost of the work to the city
City Councillors regularly hail their efforts on the Watson Island file as an important element of revenue generation for the community, however to date other than the leasing options from Pembina towards their LPG Terminal plans, City Council has not announced if any other companies have taken out leasing opportunities in the city's reborn Industrial site.
Since the location is once again a topical thing, even if in the Legal Notices, perhaps we may hear something of the current Notice and other elements for development of Watson island as part of tonight's Comments opportunity for Councillors at the Monday night session.

A Preview of what themes that City Council plans to discuss tonight can be examined from our Preview page here.
