Changes To Falls Council Approved

The new Mayor of International Falls is bringing in several changes to how his council will do business in the future.

Bob Anderson, in his first meeting, managed to receive necessary support to increase the number of council meetings a month from two to three, reduce most council committees to just two members and provide additional opportunities for the public to speak at meetings.

Anderson says its to improve transparency.

Councillor Cynthia Jaksa worries the changes will lead longer meetings and less transparency.
