WINNIPEG A new paint job for an iconic Selkirk landmark – designed by a former resident – is underway, giving the city bit of pizazz. Crews are in the process of putting up scaffolding around the Selkirk water tower. This is part of a project to repaint the exterior of the 135-foot 200,000-gallon tower. The job was supposed to be done last year, but was delayed. Duane Nicol, the CAO for Selkirk, told CTV News the city now has the funds for the paint job. The skin protects it. It keeps the weather and the elements away from the metal, Nicol said, adding the paint job will do more than just protect the tower from the elements.
