First Draft Of Budget Almost Complete

The first draft of the 2014 municipal budget will be presented to Sioux Lookout Council in mid-February.
Chief Administrative Office Ann Mitchell says they have worked with municipal departments to come up with a document.
Mitchell notes the community is facing some challenges including a drop of $190,000 in funding from a major provincial program as well as policing costs.
She says the new OPP funding model will have a major impact on Sioux Lookout.
