noting adjacent assets like the museum and 18-hole golf course. The township’s emergency services underscore its commitment to residents. With six fire halls, a rarity for a community its size, St. Clair prioritizes safety. “We have a lot of protection for our residents too,” Agar proudly states. The coming 18 months will be defined by infrastructure execution.The $50 million wastewater treatment plant remains the cornerstone project while road and bridge work continues. “We have another big project in Corunna that’s part of waste treatment too,” Agar adds. “Industry used to handle their own wastewater, now they want to tie into municipal systems because it’s cheaper for them.” “I think a lot will go into our infrastructure to make sure we’re on top of that because that’s how you bring industry, you have to make sure you have everything down,” says Agar. Looking ahead,Agar balances ambition with realism about funding processes: “It’s all doable, but you have to get the right person to come along.” Yet his confidence in St. Clair’s foundation never wavers. 137 CIVIL AND MUNICIPAL VOLUME 06, ISSUE 05 ST.
