Generators

The community has five generators available for residents with medical needs during power outages. If you would like to register for the use of a generator during the winter months, please call 902-836-5029 or a member of Council to register for one. You will require gas and an outdoor extension cord to operate the generator. We can deliver a generator to you if you are unable to pick one up.
