Hastings-Lennox and Addington MPP Ric Bresee made an announcement Friday in Deseronto that our public transit will benefit from.
Greater Napanee Mayor Terry Richardson commented that we have growing municipalities, and one of the staples is public transit.
The breakdown of funding is as follows:
- Town of Deseronto – $193,792
- Loyalist Township – $198,449
- Marmora and Lake – $201,730
- Town of Bancroft – $83,303
The Ontario government is putting nearly $380 million into 102 municipalities across the province to enhance local transit through the Gas Tax program. This year, there’s an extra one-time $3 million added to ensure municipalities can keep supporting and expanding their transit systems.
