New Bathrooms for Anicinabe

Kenora City Council is expected to approve a tender to replace the bathroom facilities at Aniciabe Park, even though the project is over budget.

The city had put aside 350 thousand dollars for the project in this years budget, but the lowest bid for the work came in at 475 thousand dollars.

Operations Manager Rick Perchuck says they have been able to reduce that cost by about 70 thousand dollars by making some changes.

Council has agreed to find an extra 79 thousand dollars in the 2010 capital budget
to proceed with the washroom facility at Anicinabe.

Its expected to be complete in time for next camping season.
