Huron-Kinloss mayor revokes order that stopped water supply to seasonal dwellings

May 8, 2020

Huron-Kinloss mayor Mitch Twolan has revoked the Municipal Order under the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act to not permit the operation of any valves for the purpose of supplying water to seasonal dwellings during the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) emergency pandemic situation.

In a press release, issued Friday, the municipality continues to strongly discourage all seasonal residents from travelling to the township while the pandemic situation exists. Staying home, avoiding non-essential travel, physical-distancing and hand-washing are still key to protecting the health and well-being of individuals and families to stop the spread of COVID-19.

"Thank you to all the residents of Huron-Kinloss who have respected the provincial and municipal orders. We appreciate how everyone is working together to fight this pandemic and although we aren't out of the woods, I feel as if our efforts to protect each other are working,” said Twolan. “Council and staff are working hard to start a cautious and gradual approach to move forward and bring back some normalcy, but the safety of our staff and of our community will always be our biggest priority.”
