The Town of Cape Broyle was one of 14 municipalities across the province to receive funding from the federal government to implement asset management strategies.
The community received $40,320 under the program.
According to a release from the federal government, asset management helps communities manage their municipal infrastructure assets such as roads, arenas, bridges, and drinking water and wastewater systems, helping councils make informed decisions.
All told, government doled out more than $580,000 for the 14 community projects.
Other communities to receive funding include LaScie, New Perlican, Hants Harbour, Parson’s Pond, St. Jacques-Coomb’s Cove, Trinity Bay North, Long Harbour-Mount Arlington Heights, Centreville-Wareham-Trinity, York Harbour, Buchans, Whitbourne, King’s Point, and Lewin’s Cove.
Communities were awarded a maximum of $50,000.
The money comes from the government’s $110-million Municipal Asset Management Program.
