Emergency funding for Huron, Bruce communities exceeds $7.7M

Municipalities in Huron and Bruce will receive hundreds of thousands of dollars as part of emergency funding.

MPP for Huron-Bruce Lisa Thompson said the total amount in the first round of funding under the Safe Restart Agreement is $7.7 million. That includes over $1.8 million for Huron County, which is above and beyond what the 15 lower-tier municipalities are getting.

The funding is to help municipalities deliver critical public services.

"From my talks with local leaders, this is much-needed assistance that will go a long way in helping their municipalities deliver services too," said Thompson.

Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh $189,100 Municipality of Bluewater $330,000 Brockton $267,100 Bruce County $2,497,900 Central Huron $257,900 Goderich $221,500 Howick Township $90,100 Huron County $1,833,800 Huron East $240,000 Huron-Kinloss $256,600 Kincardine $376,500 Morris-Turnberry $79,800 North Huron $138,500 Saugeen Shores $499,200 South Bruce $149,300 South Huron $286,900
