Roblin Waste Disposal Site - Burn Pit Closure
Overview

The Municipality of Roblin receives a variety of requests each year for grants, contributions, or other forms of financial support from local organizations. While Council values and appreciates the work of all community groups, budget constraints make it necessary to administer funding requests fairly and consistently.

  • Full project description and explanation

  • Proposed location with site plan (including drainage, servicing, maintenance)
