Sioux Narrows/Nestor Falls Approves 2012 Budget

The Town of Sioux Narrows/Nestor Falls is trying to hold the line on taxes.

Once again this year, the town council has passed a budget with no increase in the mill rate.

However, Mayor Bill Thompson says that doesn't mean home owners in his community will be paying the same amount of taxes as last year.

Thompson says while municipal spending will increase less than two percent, the community will have to shell out more for policing and the Kenora District Services Board.
