14 Projects in Perth County get Infrastructure Funding - Fri. July 3 08:22 pm
Communities in Perth County are getting nearly $4-million in infrastructure funding from the federal and provincial governments.

In total 14 projects get funding - including $2-million going towards Dufferin Arena repairs in Stratford. Other projects include Pool repairs in St. Marys, Milverton and Spruce Lodge. Schellenberger says investments in these projects stimulate the economy, enhance local facilities and services and foster dynamic communities.
