Municipalities get help to cover COVID-19 costs
August 13, 2020
The province is handing out cash to 444 municipalities to help cover the costs of COVID-19.
Aside from purchasing supplies like hand sanitizers and face mask, municipalities have seen revenues drop as libraries, community centres, arenas and public transit was shutdown to help slow the spread of COVID-19 in mid March.
The federal and provincial governments struck a deal in July and municipalities are just now seeing what it will mean to them.
In all, over $8 million will flow to Lambton County. Here’s a list of who gets what;
Brooke-Alvinston – $63,500
Dawn-Euphemia – $53,500
Enniskillen – $68,500
Lambton Shores – $458,500
Oil Springs – $18,400
Petrolia – $150,000
Plympton-Wyoming – $217,400
Point Edward – $58,900 and an additional $23,240 to support transit operations
Sarnia – $2,033,600 and an additional $1,103,777 to support transit operations
St. Clair Township – $391,800
Warwick – $89,400
“Our government knows that the success of our municipalities is vital to our economic recovery. We will continue working hand-in-hand with municipalities to ensure they can emerge stronger than ever and continue to keep all Ontarians safe,” said Sarnia-Lambton MPP Bob Bailey in a news release.
Municipalities will be able to apply for more funding later this year.
