Wawa, Chapleau & Dubreuilville to Receive Less in OMPF, White River More

Some local communities will receive a little less from the provincial government next year - but one will get a little more.

The Ontario government's unveiled next year's Ontario Municipal Partnership Fund rates, noting that - like recent years - a total of $500-million will be spread among 390 municipalities.

That includes a total of $1,482,500 for the Municipality of Wawa - down $54,500 from the 2023 allocation, which was already a decrease of more than $50,000 from the previous year - while Dubreuilville's will drop $21,500 - to $292,900 - and Chapleau will see a smaller decrease of $10,500, to $1,351,600.

Better news for the Township of White River, which will receive $523,300, a $28,900 increase from this year, which was already nearly $20,000 more than 2022.
