The announcement was made at the Community Touch a Truck event and will see the Nuclear Waste Management Organization provide funding to purchase a new fire pumper truck for the Mildmay-Carrick Fire Station and a compactor for the two South Bruce landfills.
The request for the funding was submitted by the Council and was approved by the NWMO based on how they will meet sustainability, achievability community benefit goals, and other criteria as laid out in the Near-Term Investment program.
The remainder balances for both items will be paid using Municipal reserves.
