Council has approved a one percent increase in the mill rate, which amounts to about 21 dollars a month for the average homeowner.
Councilor Rod McKay says he would still like to see about a half a million dollars trimmed from the capital side of the budget.
McKay says there are four items in the capital budget he wants to re-visit, including 170 thousand dollars to renovate the entry into the Kenora Rec. Center and also a front end loader for the facility.
