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;

Lambton County – $3,604,000 

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.
