Northern Maple Utilities Inc.

Northern Maple Utilities Inc. (NMU Inc.) is a publicly owned Municipal Service Corporation (MSC) that is responsible for water and wastewater operations and infrastructure throughout the Township of Mapleton.

In early 2024, the Township partnered with Graham Capital, an expert in “project financing and alternative delivery models”. Graham identified an opportunity for Mapleton to establish an MSC to a long-term sustainable financing structure that preserves municipal borrowing capacity while advancing essential infrastructure projects. 

Through the collaborative efforts of the Township, Graham Capital, CIMA+ and the Ontario Clean Water Agency (OCWA) Northern Maple Utilities Inc. was officially established as an MSC in the spring of 2025. This new entity will be responsible for the ongoing operations, maintenance, asset renewal, and delivery of water and wastewater services to the Township of Mapleton

While infrastructure investments of more than $40 million commence in June 2025, the transition of all components of operations and maintenance, including but not limited to water/wastewater billing, will take place over the course of 2025.
