The Fraser building project has also been completed over the past eight years. The previous council acquired the building, she said. “It’s very diffi cult in a community like ours to have somebody KnowTheSigns.ca come in and spend a couple of million dollars on it, so it was ac- quired through a partnership with the Cochrane-Temiskaming Na- tive Housing. We ended up refurbishing it as affordable housing on the one side. The half of the building that is operated by Cobalt has small bachelor apartments. The nice thing is that it has provided housing for over 20 people in Cobalt. The other thing that occurred North Bay: was that the Bunker Military Museum was relocated.... It’s fi rst- Community Counselling Centre of Nipissing class and it’s the best military museum off of base anywhere in the 705-472-6515 country, and they’ve done a really good job. So that was a coup,” she said. “The other thing is that on the main fl oor the doctor’s offi ce has relocated there and now we have a pharmacy in town,” she added. During Sartoretto’s time in offi ce the community hall has been renovated to include a business centre and sound system along with accessible washrooms, she noted. The municipal offi ces and council chambers were also renovated. The main street running through the town has also been repaved, and the retaining wall by the Miner’s Tavern was replaced, she added. The solar project has now been completed and is operational, she noted, adding that the town will start getting revenue from the project in 2019. During Sartoretto’s time as mayor, the community has also en- tered into a full-service recycling and waste disposal project with the City of Temiskaming Shores. “That has turned out to be quite successful. It was a good proj- ect,” she said. LED (light-emitting diode) streetlights have been installed “and that particular project saves the council a lot of money,” Sartoretto commented. “The return on investment is very, very good.” The historic Cobalt logo has also been used to promote the town’s brand. “It’s out there now and people see it,” said Sartoretto. “We redid all the signs for the walking trail.” Sartoretto chairs the Temiskaming Transit Committee and during her time with that committee, service has been added on Saturdays and Sundays, and the number of passengers using the system has grown from 80,000 to 140,000. Accessible buses have been added, “and I think for the elderly it’s a real improvement,” said Sartoret- to. Cobalt is also in an economic development partnership with Coleman Township and Latchford and the three municipalities re- cently hosted a mining conference. She has also been involved with the Temiskaming Municipal As- sociation, the Temiskaming Mayors’ Action Group, and the Dis- trict of Timiskaming Social Services Administration Board. Sartoretto worked with others to set up the Historic Cobalt Leg- acy Fund. “We’re continuing to work at that,” she said of the project. “That has been benefi cial to the town and the organizations in the town.” Sartoretto noted of council that “there have been some diffi cult times. I would be remiss if I said it hasn’t been challenging,” but she said that if the egos were set aside, including hers, she believes the council has accomplished some good things for the town. Sartoretto is retired as vice-president-academic of College Bo- real in Sudbury and serves on the Laurentian University board of governors. She is a member of the Golden Age Club where she plays bridge, and started a musical jam group that meets every Thursday night.

On what was one of the hottest days of the summer, people enjoyed cold craft brews, a variety of spirits and locally sourced foods while listening to hometown mu- sicians. The Festival partnered with the Farm Innovation Alliance to create an upscale outdoor barbecue themed event. FUNDING The festival organizers and volunteers will turn over a cheque for $45,000 to the Temiskaming Hospital Foun- dation’s Care Close To Home campaign, $500 each will go to the Cobalt/Coleman/Latchford and Area Food Bank, the Haileybury Food Bank and the New Liskeard Salvation Army Food Bank.
