Nanaimo is offering tours of its public works yard this weekend.

The city is looking to borrow $48.5 million to begin replacing and upgrading parts of the facility, which was built in the 1960s.

Members of the media were invited for a separate tour Tuesday, we’ll bring you excerpts from that..

We’ll also explore the Alternative Approval Process that’s opening up this week as the city seeks voter approval to borrow the money it will take to complete the project.
