The City of Dryden is getting $237,000 for two projects from the Northern Ontario Heritage Fund.

Almost $147,000 is going towards fixing up the city’s main docks at the end of Van Horne Avenue.

They were badly damaged by high water last year.

Dryden mayor Jack Harrison says the money is much needed.

“Funding from the NOHFC will allow us to make necessary repairs to fully re-open the dock, giving
residents and visitors a place to safely access and enjoy Wabigoon Lake,”

Another $90,000 is going towards installation of a new HVAC system at firehall #1.
