Spend grant money on roads

Anne Howitt | Apr 03, 2019

In as much as the Township and the County have so unexpectedly received funds from the Province of Ontario, I would suggest to both that those funds should be spent on improving our roads! I realize that the County has no roads, but it does receive the road tax rebate and then is supposed to pass it along to the various townships. Instead, it spent a goodly amount on a recreational trail, while our roads are left in terrible shape. If the money has to be spent on improving service delivery, then find ways to reduce the number of municipal staff and spend the savings on the roads.
