One of the only councils that help support the Cherry Brook Zoo is questioning whether it will do it again for their next budget.
According to Mayor Bill Bishop, Rothesay Council was the only municipality to give money to the zoo last year, and the zoo is back asking for financial aid again. When CHSJ news asked Mayor Bishop if Rothesay is hesitant to donate funds, he said yes he’s hesitant himself. Bishop says it looks like the zoo will be going out of business pretty shortly, so putting money in won’t improve their desperate financial situation.
Rothesay Council has referred the request to finance.
