Hastings County Council is being asked to apply for significant funding to upgrade a recreation facility at one of its housing complexes.
The county’s Community Human Services Committee is recommending that council apply for $200,000 from a provincial government fund to help pay for $400,000 worth of repairs and upgrades to the playground and basketball court located on Pine Street in east-end Belleville.
If the application is successful the remaining $200,000 would be paid from the county’s 2025 budget.
Hastings County Council will make the final decision on applying at its next meeting.
