Budget Cuts Coming At City Hall

Common Council is saying cuts are likely at City Hall next year with all departments and agencies undergoing a comprehensive review of what they do.

Councillor David Merrithew chairs the city's Finance Committee and he says there are definitely efficiencies to be found without having to increase taxes down the road.

Merrithew sees light at the end of the tunnel with the population growing at some point down the road. Canada Mortgage and Housing is predicting that'll be in 2016.
