Federal government announces $156K in funding for downtown Dartmouth projects
“. . .
NDP MLA Claudia Chender said this funding was the fruit of realizing, during COVID-19, community is at the heart of Dartmouth’s appeal.
“We need spaces to gather,” Chender said.
She said the efforts of the Downtown Dartmouth Business Commission should be acknowledged.
“The business commission cares as much about community as they do about commerce. And they understand the interaction of those two things, especially in downtown Dartmouth where we are blessed to have so many small, vibrant, independent businesses.”
This project, Chender said, is a testament to that commitment.
“I am very happy for this space,” she said at Alderney Plaza.”
