The RM of Lakeshore is preparing to introduce their new protective services as a special service levy.
Clinton Cleave, the Reeve of the RM, says this new fee will go towards funding services like fire, ambulance, and all other emergency responders.
“We’re going to put it on every parcel that’s within the municipality and that fee comes out to $41.97. Whether that’s farm land, a pasture, or residence, a bare lot, or a seasonal, you would pay the fee.”
A public hearing is planned for Thursday, April 5th at 7 in the evening at the Ochre River municipal chamber office.
