LRCA requires more funds

Thunder Bay could be paying more money to the Lakehead Region Conservation Authority in 2011.  the authority is asking council for almost an extra 176 thousand dollars, and administration is recommending putting that figure into the 2011 budget.   They money is to offset the costs associated with the failed attempt to build a new facility on Fort William Road.  The remaining funds are to be used for maintenance and capital expenditures for the old facility.  414 thousand dollars will be considered for next years budget for the LRCA.
