Pond moved for road
By Jim Cornelius

Excavators have moved the pond at the Best Western Ponderosa Lodge at the west end of Sisters to make way for a new road intersection with Highway 20.

The new Barclay Road extension will run across Forest Service property to link the Sisters Industrial Park with Highway 20. The pond was previously situated in the way of the intersection.

According to city planner Neil Thompson, the Barclay Road extension will be in place by November. The final cost is expected to be $840,000, funded through grants. The City of Sisters put up $10,000 (some through in-kind services), mostly to fund an environmental assessment.

Another new road, called McKinney Butte Road, will start at the same intersection and run south-southwest to the new Sisters High School.

The school district is responsible for having the road in place when the school opens in Fall 2003.
