Water
Due to population growth within the RM, an application to expand and improve the water distribution system was made in 2017. The C$5 million project would involve twinning of the distribution pipe between Ste. Agathe and St. Adolphe, twinning of the distribution pipe between Ste. Agathe and Grande Pointe, expansion of the Water Treatment Plant tank to store 1 additional megalitre, and a wider pipe to allow for a 50-litre per second flow from the well.[5]
