Many are seeing it as a no-brainer.

The Eclipse Financial Snowcross Pro-Challenge will be back in Timmins this coming March, and the city is approving a request so it can go off without a hitch.

Around $18,000 of support is headed for the event.

Councillor Noella Rinaldo simplified things by saying most of the items are in-kind.  Rinaldo described them as city assets that would otherwise sit in the city’s warehouse.

“This is the most we can do is lend (the items) out to organizations to run events,” she added, “That’s what in-kind is.”

When brought to a vote, Councillors Rick Dubeau, Joe Campbell and Andre Grzela voted against it while everyone else passed it through.
