Provincial funding is coming to a pair of Huron County municipalities, to help in efforts to create more housing.
Over $11 million was announced for the Town of Goderich and Municipality of Bluewater through the Housing-Enabling Water Systems Fund.
That money will help municipalities develop, repair, rehabilitate, and expand drinking water, wastewater and stormwater infrastructure.
It is estimated the $8.3 million Bluewater is receiving will support the construction of 507 housing units by expanding the Bayfield Wastewater Treatment Facility.
Goderich’s $3.2 million will support 1,750 housing units by increasing water supply capacity at the town’s water treatment plant.
