City to spend nearly $60 million on water and sewer
MEDICINE HAT, AB – On Tuesday night City Council approved $58.7 million dollars in borrowing for infrastructure projects over the next two years.
The majority of the projects are water and sewer main replacements, but there are also some upgrades being made to Medicine Hat’s water treatment plant.
The projects will increase the city’s debt level from 45 per cent to 63 per cent.
Councillor Bill Cocks said it’s concerning to see that number increase.
