THUNDER BAY – The City of Thunder Bay is proposing to provide up to $1.35 million for a loan program to support the private lead pipe replacement program.
The measure is expected to be discussed at Monday’s committee of the whole meeting.
If approved, the administration would report back annually on the status of the loans and whether or not the loan envelope was enough to cover the requests under the proposed program.
