Ontario Rewards Sault Ste. Marie With $600,000 Through the Building Faster Fund
Rob Flack, Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing was in Sault Ste. Marie to hand out a $600,000 cheque through its Building Faster Fund.
As part of its record-breaking investments in housing-enabling infrastructure, the Ontario government is awarding $600,000 to Sault Ste. Marie through the second round of the Building Faster Fund, which provides funding to municipalities that achieve at least 80 per cent of their provincially designated housing targets.
Sault Ste. Marie broke ground on 189 new homes in 2024, which works out to 151 per cent of its 2024 housing target.
This funding will help Sault Ste. Marie build more homes and community infrastructure and supports the province’s plan to protect Ontario by investing in infrastructure to support economic growth and keep workers on the job.
