Town supports Chamber’s plans for lighting upgrades
The Town of Battleford is giving its support to help light up the local Chamber.
At its meeting Monday, council approved making a gesture of support to help Battlefords Chamber of Commerce apply for funding for a lighting project, estimated at between $12,000 to $15,000, for its facilities.
Chamber Executive Director Linda Machniak said the chamber isn’t looking for any funding from council, only an acknowledgment of its support for the project, as a municipal partner.
“It’s the administrative support, but we’re not looking for help in making the application,” Machniak said. “It’s just to indicate to the grantor that, yes, we have the support of the municipality.”
