During a special meeting last week, Wawa Municipal Council approved a staff recommendation to accept a roughly $111,000 proposal from Research Casting - the company which made the current Wawa Goose monument and its themed base - for the design, construction, and installation of "themed interpretive panels" which would be installed along the boardwalk, tying into the waterfront project's boreal forest theme.
