Council request review of District Services Board

Kenora City Council plans to ask the provincial government to conduct a review of the
services provided by the Kenora District Services Board.
Former chair of the Services Board, Rory McMillan made the recommendation to
council this week.

McMillan says the Services Board is ten years old and thinks the government needs
to look at its mandate.

He suggests that some things, like land ambulence service, don't really belong on
the municipal tax roll.

He says the request for a review isn't a slight against the board, he just feels its time
to revisit its direction and mandate.
