Seniors Seek Freeze on Taxes and User Fees

A Fort Frances seniors group wants town council to hold the line on taxes and user fees for the next couple of years.

The Seniors, Retirees Against Pension and Elder Abuse also wants a recent 3 per cent hike on sewer and water rates repealed.

Chair Allan Bedard says too many people are already suffering financially.

Council will continues its budget discussion tonight with a major focus on user fees.
