Province gives $1 million more to city to help it avoid deficit

New funding to help local governments avoid operating deficits in 2021 was announced today by MPP Laurie Scott’s office, including about $1 million for Kawartha Lakes.
The money was announced as part of Phase 2 of the Safe Restart Agreement in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“This new funding will help municipalities in HKLB develop a 2021 budget that reflects the challenges of COVID-19,” said Scott.
