Chatham street parking lot paving project

Steveston residents may have been wondering what is going on with the work at our Chatham street parking lot. The Steveston Harbour Authority is currently working on levelling and paving the lot. LED lighting and future infrastructure for future EV car charging is also being put in place along with electrical tie-ins for tv/movie production companies. This will eliminate the need for diesel generators during the filming process.
