LETHBRIDGE: Lethbridge County is hosting a series of open houses, as they look at options for “Funding Our Future”.
The county needs to collect $3.5-million starting this year to reinvest in the Market Access Network, which includes 167 bridges and about 2000-kilometres of road. Over 20-per cent of the bridges have reached their maximum age, and if the county doesn’t invest now, there is a risk that some will be closed.
At this point, no final decisions have been made on how the money will be collected, with first reading of revenue raising bylaws set for April 7, 2016.
You can find details on “Funding Our Future” at www.lethcounty.ca and in the County Connection, Special Edition: Funding Our Future, which will be in this week’s Sunny South News and at Lethbridge County offices.
