The City of Dauphin has applied for only one project in the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program.

Under the Green Infrastructure Grant, the city has submitted their expression of interest to upgrade the city’s lagoons.

City hall considers Dauphin’s lagoon upgrades the priority at this time and that’s why it was the sole project listed.

Sharla Griffiths, the Assistant City Manager, says there needs to be more capacity which means the lagoon needs to increase in size. An engineering report shows that the project will cost about $13 million.

They sent it in before the August 10th deadline.
