Ontario investing over $250,000 in six local projects

The Spencerville Mill is among the projects getting a financial boost from the province.

Leeds-Grenville-Thousand Islands and Rideau Lakes MPP Steve Clark says the mill, along with five other local projects, are receiving nearly $251,000 through the Rural Ontario Development program.

The mill will put just over $36,000 to supporting its elevator installation project while the Township of Edwardsburgh Cardinal will use $50,000 for an industrial park expansion feasibility study.

Other recipients include:

Township of Rideau Lakes: $59,520 for a township-wide historic village renewal project including streetscapes, wayfinding and landscaping.
Township of Elizabethtown-Kitley: $50,000 for a North Augusta road employment lands servicing study.
Municipality of North Grenville: $35,000 for the Downtown Kemptville secondary plan.
Town of Gananoque: $20,000 for the Invested in our Future business retention, expansion, and investment attraction project.

Clark says strong, rural, communities are essential to the quality of life and building a resilient local economy.
