The Yorkton Business Improvement District will be investing an additional $100,000 in lighting for the downtown area following Yorkton Council's acceptance of a proposal to extend their deal with the City for an additional year.
The YBID made a request for the extension through a letter circulated to Council at its regular meeting Monday.
The extension will have YBID making an additional $100,000 payment in 2016.
The "extra payment will be enough to cover the costs of lighting for the new skateboard park, the sidewalk lighting as well as the additional street lights for the Myrtle redevelopment project," detailed the letter.
