County gives city $200,000 for operation grant
MEDICINE HAT, AB — Cypress County council made a gesture for collaboration with the City of Medicine Hat Tuesday night.
The county presented the City of Medicine Hat with $200,000 during Tuesday night’s city council meeting. It’s the second such donation the county has given to the city.
“It goes towards some of their recreational operations,” said Councillor Robin Kurpjuweit, who represents the riding of Longfellow. “The county recognizes that we have a strategic long-term partnership with the City of Medicine Hat, and this is just one way that we could help out moving forward.”
The funding will be used to help the city operate facilities such as the Family Leisure Centre and the Medicine Hat Public Library, which are used by members of the county.
