Not Too Worried About The One Per Cent Cut

The Mayor of Rothesay says 1 per cent reduction in grant money from the province will not have any impact on their budgeting process.
Bill Bishop tells CHSJ News he does find it frustrating that the Quispamsis gets double the amount of funding they receive.
He says they have been trying to find out from the two previous provincial governments with no satisfactory answer.


Quispamsis Mayor Murray Driscoll understands the reduction is necessary as the Provincial government is trying to curtail spending.
He says maybe it's a one time things and they can overcome it in their budget process.
Driscoll says his town supports the Province's efforts to reduce costs.
