The $53,959.. representing an advance against Waterloo’s maximum allocation of $215,834 for the current fiscal year, will be distributed to residents wishing to renovate their homes to "acceptable community standards." The funds were given to the city in a grant from the provincial government through its Ontario Home Renewal Program. Waterloo will now act as a banker and handle the distribution of the monies as well as the collection.

There are four Honda models to choose from: 3.5, 5.5 and 8 horsepower, also 8 h.p. with electric start. Every Honda snowthrower has a reliable four-stroke engine so there's no messy gas and oil mixing. They can clear depths of up to a foot and a half depending on the model. And the two larger models have dual-track drive and three forward speeds, plus reverse, to really plough through drifts.
