The province is investing up to $1.46 million into nine projects prioritized from the third intake of applications under the Municipal Service Delivery Improvement Program.
The Municipality of McCreary was approved for funding to undertake a review of its waste management and recycling operations, while the RM of Alonsa will conduct a review of its waste collection and recycling programs.
The applications focused on service delivery reviews in a number of areas, including transportation, water and sewer, waste management, and recreation and culture, among others.
Municipal and Northern Relations Minister Ian Bushie says service delivery reviews ensure funding is being used efficiently and effectively by identifying cost savings and streamlining operations so that municipalities can offer improved services without having to raise taxes or reduce front-line services.
