Alfred-Plantagenet Township was one of several municipalities hit hard by the derecho, a violent wind storm, that blew across Eastern Ontario over the May long weekend. The township is applying to the provincial government for disaster relief aid to cover some or all of the costs for cleaning up after the storm. —photo Gregg Chamberlain
