Grimsby warned on capital expenditures by Ontario Board
The Ontario Municipal Board told Grimsby no further capital expenditures aside from hydro and water will be considered for five years. It granted tentative approval of a 150000 sewage works project, with council placing it with the Ontario Water Resources Commission. The Grimsby Independent notes a possible boost in assessments could change the board’s stance, as it asks council for a five year forecast of expenditures and capital debt retirements, plus likely assessment increases.
