Two weeks ago I received a notice stating that the Town of Minto will be abandoning the old iron water lines. Why should I be upset about this? Because I am still connected to these water lines
2 years ago the township installed new water lines in my town. I received a letter then stating it was the home owners responsibility to bring the line into their home. So why hasn’t this been done?
I am a nearly senior single home owner working full time to make ends meet. I have no more resources today then I did 2 years ago. This is something that is simply unaffordable on my budget. Have I tried to finance this project?
I have managed to reduce several expenses …. cut off my satellite, cancelled insurance policies, looked into refinancing my mortgage, reduced payments on several bills … but am still having difficulty making ends meet. Don’t believe me. Call all the companies calling monthly looking for payments
I wrote to the township for help. They in turn told me they can’t assist me. I called my MPP. They also do not offer financial assistance. I was directed to Ontario Works. Seems my income is too high to be considered
I am not looking for a handout. But I am looking for help to get my water lines connected before the 15th of August.
If anyone has any suggestions or is willing to work with my meager budget, I would be extremely grateful
