The funding supports approximately 1,800 projected new homes. ## Central finding The City of Oshawa secured $3.2 million in April 2026 to fund stormwater upgrades supporting the Kedron Part II Planning Area. Sources: [City receives $3.2M for water infrastructure](https://www.oshawa.ca/news/posts/city-receives-32m-from-province-for-water-infrastructure/) ## Stormwater Funding for Kedron Part II The City of Oshawa announced on April 14, 2026, that it secured $3.2 million through the Municipal Housing Infrastructure Program. This funding targets priority stormwater upgrades specifically supporting the Kedron Part II Planning Area. The investment addresses infrastructure needs for a development zone projected to include approximately 1,800 new homes. This municipal allocation connects directly to the broader Canada Housing Infrastructure Fund established in April 2024. The federal program provides $6 billion over ten years to accelerate housing-enabling water and wastewater systems. The Oshawa funding represents a localized application of these provincial and federal infrastructure priorities.

Parks account for 17 of these points, while schools, grocery stores, and recreation facilities each contribute smaller counts. The distribution reflects a dense network of public access points across the neighbourhood. Specific named locations include Father Joseph Venini Catholic School, Kedron Public School, and Sherwood Public School among the three schools. Grocery options include Food Go, Byrava Supermarket, and The Grocery Outlet. These mapped points provide a baseline for understanding the physical service landscape within the area.
