Police Costs Lower than Expected

It looks like policing costs in the City of Kenora will be under budget for
the fourth year in a row.

Inspector Dave Lucas from the Kenora Detachment says midway through the year, they've spent about 300 thousand dollars less than expected.

The total bill for this year has been projected at 6.7 million dollars, but Lucas believes they will be able to come in well under budget.

He adds that reduced overtime is just one of the reasons why they are running under budget so far this year.
