It might not be what the community is used to, nevertheless Newtonville once again has a general store. Kerswell reopened the Newtonville General Store ‘temporarily’ in a trailer at 4504 Hwy 2 on February 11 as he waits for the March 9 Ontario Land Tribunal (OLT) appeal launched by the owners of his former location. Kerswell was granted rezoning by the municipality of his residential property located at 4532 Hwy 2 to allow a commercial business.
