A new feature in Shelburne has at least one councillor excited about the opportunity.
The town has set up a camera on Cox’s Warehouse through Nova Scotia Webcams.
Rick Davis says it allows people to see what’s happening along the water.
“A lot of people from away, especially, can see our beautiful waterfront. It also means people will be able to see the numerous events that happen on the waterfront.”
Davis adds events that include the Whirligig Festival and Founders’ Days.
It costs roughly $150 a month to pay for the camera, which is covered in the town’s budget.
Davis says it’s attracted a lot of views in a short amount of time.
“It only went up late Friday and is approaching 3,000 shares on social media already.”
Davis says it’s been about a three year process to get a webcam set up in town.
He says they have a beautiful harbour and hopes it will attract people to the area.
