DRYDEN, Ont. -- A water operations financial plan shows Dryden is not setting aside enough money for the future replacement of equipment and other assets.
Dryden is contributing $375,000 toward capital replacement in the water budget compared with the recommended level of more than $1 million.
Public works director Mike Louttit says the situation isn't dire right now, but he notes a massive failure in the future could pose problems.
The plan recommends a six per cent water rate fee increase annually for the next six years, but Louttit says they are looking at other options.
