Budgets And Mill Assessment Talk Continues

Dryden isn’t the only community wrestling with its budget and mill assessments.
Thunder Bay Council has approved the 2013 budget and taxes are going up 2.6%.
Meantime, the Town of Fort Frances won’t be putting any money in reserves this year.
The million dollars it had set aside, will now go toward offsetting the $1.7-million tax rebate to Resolute Forest Products.
The town had already set aside $575,000 towards the company’s assessment appeal.
Dryden continues to work on the 2013 budget and a draft version is expected to be presented to Council this month.
