Brad Michaleski, MLA for Dauphin, today announced that the Manitoba government is investing in important infrastructure in the Dauphin constituency.
Through the Small Communities Fund, the Progressive Conservative government is providing $9,520 for four projects in the Municipality of Roblin. The projects being funded include: Parkland Trout Fisheries; Bathmetric Mapping; Fish Regulation Sign; Trap and Gill Netting.
“Our government understands that small communities and their residents depend on investments in important local infrastructure projects,” said Michaleski. “With the Small Communities Fund, we are supporting priority, local projects across Manitoba with investments in infrastructure that facilitates growth, improves the quality of life and boosts regional development.”
Provincial funding will cover one-third of the overall eligible project costs, and will be matched by one-third contributions from the federal government and the Municipality of Roblin.
The Small Communities Fund supports priority infrastructure projects in communities with fewer than 100,000 residents across Canada. The Manitoba and federal governments are using the fund to invest in 42 projects in 37 communities, with each of the two levels of government contributing more than $10 million toward the estimated $34.6 million in total project costs. The projects will improve drinking water, wastewater management, culture, tourism, recreation and public transit across Manitoba.
