Cainsville Water, Wastewater, Stormwater Study
The County of Brant would like to thank residents and business owners for engaging with us as we considered alternatives to provide water, wastewater, and stormwater servicing in Cainsville. This included expanding services to currently unserviced areas within the settlement boundary. The study identified the preferred alternatives to prepare for long-term growth through to the year 2051.
Design of the project is underway and construction is anticipated to start in 2027.

Environmental Study Report Completed
The County of Brant has completed a Water, Wastewater, and Stormwater Master Servicing Plan for Cainsville through the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment process.
The Master Service Plan considered and evaluated servicing alternatives and identified the preferred approach for water supply, water storage, water distribution, wastewater treatment, wastewater conveyance, and stormwater management. The preferred servicing approaches for these components are outlined in the Notice of Completion along with any future studies that must be completed to fulfil Municipal Class Environmental Assessment requirements.
An Environmental Study Report has been prepared to document the planning and decision-making processes of the Class Environmental AssessmentContinue reading
