North Grenville will be getting $100,000 for infrastructure projects.
The money is coming from Ontario’s new COVID-19 Resilience Infrastructure Stream.
Leeds-Grenville-Thousand Islands and Rideau Lakes MPP Steve Clark says he is proud that the government continues to deliver on the commitment they made to support local municipal partners, providing them with resources they need to build and repair roads, bridges and water and wastewater systems.
“This critical infrastructure is not only necessary to ensure our communities remain great places to live, it helps us attract new investment and create jobs as our economy continues to recover from COVID-19.”
