Nipissing social services to buy $150K ATV from reserves for emergency weather responses.

The District of Nipissing Social Services Administration Board plans to buy a $150,000 off-road ATV from reserves to aid in emergency responses during severe weather. Board members, including Chairman Mark King, support this one-time purchase, which comes with an estimated $10,000 in first-year operating costs. The decision was influenced by recent extreme weather events, like a disruptive winter storm on Highway 11 in Muskoka.
