NOMA Calls for New Infrastructure Program

Ontario Infrastructure Minister Bob Chirralli is being asked to change the infrastructure funding formula.


Outgoing president of the Northwestern Ontario Municipal Association Anne Krassilowsky made the call during a meeting with the Minister this week.

Krassilowsky stresses the current formula is putting area communities in a bind.

She stresses that you can only raise the taxes so high before it becomes unaffordable to fund essential projects.
