Regional District to Finalize Budget
Thursday, March 21, 2013 @ 4:41 AM
Prince George, B.C.- The Regional District of Fraser Fort George budget that’s up for discussion and approval today, would see the requisition increased by 1.97% over last year. That means the RDFFG will have to collect an extra $336,060.00 to make the total requisition $17,432,070.00.
That single largest expenditure increase for the Regional District is the Foothills Landfill, as a reserve is built up to plan for the closure of the site, and funds are set aside to cover post closure costs.
Here is what the requisition will mean to communities and Electoral Areas:
