Kimberley applying for pair of infrastructure grants

The City of Kimberley is applying for two grants that will go towards the Kimberley Avenue reconstruction project and water system planning.

The city is looking to get $241,200 for the integrated water system efficiency and resilience planning project, which will be used to improve the efficiency, reliability and sustainability of the water and wastewater systems.

The city is also applying for $4,977,432 to fund the Kimberley Avenue reconstruction.

Work there will address aging underground utilities, recurring flood risks and roadway safety concerns.

Its scheduled to go ahead next year and will be fully funded if the grant is successful.

If the city does not get it, council would have to approve additional funding or change the scope of the project.
