By-Laws Being Updated

The town of Fort Frances is doing its best to ensure its by-laws are up to date.

Speaking yesterday on B-93's Can't Miss Morning Show during Local Government Week,
Councillor Andrew Hallikas admits some of its by-laws are outdated.

"There are problems with the by-laws because they are so dated," says Hallikas, "and we find out about these problems because they're brought forward by members of the public when they encounter difficulty in getting something done. Times have changed, so many by-laws need to be looked at."

Councillor Ken Perry adds the town's by-law department has been doing a lot of public education this year to better inform residents of the rules.
