Cash for OPP quite welcome
The Ontario government's cash relief to help municipalities pay for OPP service is getting a thumbs up in Lennox and Addington.
We spoke with Greater Napanee Mayor Terry Richardson, who shared his feelings after first hearing the news
The province has allocated $722,000 to go towards Greater Napanee's bill, which saw a staggering 23% increase.
Loyalist Township's Mayor Jim Hegadorn, like many others, is appreciative of the government’s cash relief
This is very welcome news as the municipal budget process continues.
The Mayor of Greater Napanee shared they try and raise taxes by as little as possible and that the only other way to not raise taxes is to reduce service levels.
Richardson is grateful their partners at the provincial level have listened to their requests and those of communities facing similar struggles.
