The warden for the Municipality of Barrington expects this year to be lean on spending.
Council recently approved their 2016-17 budget.
However, it didn’t come easy.
The municipality is facing a decrease in revenue and an increase in expenses.
Eddie Nickerson says they’re pleased to hold the tax rates – $1.00 per 100 of assessment for residents and $2.55 for businesses.
The $7.75-million budget includes money set aside for paving, upgrades to the Sandy Wickens Memorial Arena and a new dehumidifier at the Barrington Regional Curling Centre.
