Status quo for OMPF for rural municipalities

Huron-Bruce M-P-P Lisa Thompson had some good news for rural municipalities at Friday's Huron Federation of Agriculture MP /MPP Local Politician Forum in Clinton.

Thompson announced the Ontario Municipal Partnership Funding for rural municipalities would remain the same this year as it was last year.

Thompson says Minister Steve Clark discovered several urban municipalities were tapping into the Ontario Municipal Partnership Funding that was intended for rural municipalities.

She says that has now been corrected, and some urban municipalities will notice an adjustment in their funding.
