Encampment Continues at Former Brookside Youth Centre in Cobourg

In Local

Despite being given two notices it appears the encampment at the former Brookside Youth Centre may be there to stay.

The encampment has been there for approximately three weeks after being set up along the lakeshore and at the County offices on William Street in Cobourg.

A number of security guards are at the former youth facility patrolling the inside of the fenced in area.
