Mayor Chernoff says referendum results are disappointing

Disappointing results after Saturday’s failed referendum says Castlegar Mayor Lawrence Chernoff who is also Chair of the Regional District of Central Kootenay Recreation Commission.  He says they’ll go back to the drawing board.

He feels now was the right time for the project.
