Huron-Bruce MPP Lisa Thompson has announced the Ontario Municipal Partnership Funding from the province for her riding next year.
In 2022, municipalities in Huron-Bruce will split 16.4 million dollars from the province in OMPF funds, which primarily supply funding to northern and rural municipalities across Ontario. The release states that the goal of the yearly funding is to "recognize the challenges of northern and rural municipalities, while targeting funding to those with more challenging fiscal circumstances, support areas with limited property assessment, and assist municipalities that are adjusting to year-over-year funding changes."
The province is maintaining the OMPF funding level for next year at the same level it was at for 2021. The 2022 OMPF will provide a total of 500 million dollars to 389 municipalities across the province.
