Mount Pearl Mayor Dave Aker (VOCM News)
The Mayor of Mount Pearl says maintenance of infrastructure is one of the biggest issues municipalities are currently facing.
The city is availing of $7 million in federal funding for water and wastewater upgrades in the Park Avenue area.
Mayor Dave Aker says that funding will go a long way in addressing infrastructure needs in the area.
He says without the federal funding, only one half to two-thirds of the project would get done.
