(By Derek Baldwin, The Intelligencer, Oct 09, 2020) Excerpt:  The pedestrian bridge spanning the Lott Dam on the Moira River, 400 metres upstream from Pinnacle Street Bridge in Belleville, was dedicated Friday in honour of former city council member Kay Manderville. Her accomplishments were legion considering her community and political work was done when not commuting from her Highway 2 home in Belleville to her post in Kingston of 27 years as an associate professor at the Faculty of Medicine at Queens University in the Department of Anatomy.
