Fort Frances Mayor Roy Avis is looking back at 2010 as a good year for the town.
Avis says one of the highlights was the town's ability to stay within budget.
"We we're very frugal," says Avis. "We're always looking for savings wherever we can. I think our management team has done a very good job reducing costs and keeping us at a marginally increase in the budget every year."
Avis expects the town to be facing more financial challenges in 2011, especially with rising costs to agencies not controlled by council.
