A new road in the Palmerston Industrial Park will be named for First World War veteran Frank Lambier. Minto council had considered naming the street for Boer War veteran Arthur Ross. However, the name Frank Lambier was recommended by the Palmerston Legion branch, which is also named after Lambier.
“Staff does not believe there was an objection to Arthur Ross being used as a name, it’s more (a matter of) preference,” stated a staff report on potential road names presented at the March 17 council meeting.
Council approved a resolution to proceed with the name Frank Lambier Court for the cul-de-sac, which is located west of Minto Road.
Industrial land sold
At the same meeting the council agreed to sell one-acre parcel of land in the Palmerston Industrial park for development of an industrial mall.
Council passed a bylaw authorizing the sale of the land, located on the Frank Lambier Court, for $15,000 to J & J Metzger Construction.
