A number of committees in Kenora are going the way of the dodo bird.
City council has approved the elimination of a dozen standing committees.
Chief Administrative officer Bill Presentanz says they decided to cull committees that had become dormant or which have seen their duties transferred to other committees.
Some of the committees on the chopping block are the Kenora Health Providers,
the Kenora Port Authority, the Native Street Patrol Advisory committee and
the Sign Committee.
