The RM of Ste. Anne is pleased to announce that we have received funding from the provincial Manitoba GRO Grant, in the amount of 1.7 million dollars, for our fire department restoration project. This project will include upgrading essential vehicles and equipment to strengthen our emergency response.
The grant will fund the replacement of two aging fire trucks and outdated extrication equipment, including the Jaws of Life, as well as the purchase of a new fire response pick-up truck. These upgrades are essential to enhancing, and improving, our emergency response times and capabilities.
With the help of this grant, we can work towards long-term sustainability and reliability of our fire protection services. Manitoba GRO is an application-based program designed to help municipalities advance critical infrastructure that will support growing and sustainable communities.
La municipalité de Ste. Anne est maintenant officiellement et fièrement bilingue. Pour les informations et les services en français, vous avez tout simplement besoin de nous les demander.
