Kenora City Payroll

Pay equity is catching up with the City of Kenora.

A pay equity plan has been completed which could affect five employees on the city payroll.

Its estimated that it will cost the city about 115 thousand dollars to implement the plan.

The pay equity review is retroactive to January 1st, 2009.

Councillor Louis Roussin says they knew there would be cost associated with the pay equity review, they just didn't know how much it would be when they drafted the 2011 budget.

Any pay adjustment could come from the City's contingency reserve fund.
