OPP are releasing some figures on what will be charged to municipalities policed by the provincial service.Beginning in 2015, policing costs will be based on a 260-dollar per household charge plus calls per service.
Inspector Steve Shouldice of the Rainy River Detachment says municipalities, like Kenora and Red Lake, now paying over 900-dollars per household will see some savings.
He adds that other smaller municipalities like Lake of the Woods, which currently pays 61 dollars per household, will face higher costs.
Shouldice says costs will also be based on 96 different types of calls, instead of the 400 now used.
