Lethbridge to lose up to $930,000 annually from traffic ticket and provincial building changes
LETHBRIDGE, AB – The City of Lethbridge could lose nearly one million dollars every year thanks to two changes made by the provincial government.
Premier Jason Kenney and the United Conservative Party unveiled their first budget last week, which promises a level of fiscal restraint that would help to balance the budget by 2023.
Lethbridge Mayor Chris Spearman gave his general thoughts on the budget last week, but has now learned new information on how it will impact the city going forward.
LNN asked Spearman about funding for police services in Lethbridge after an article from CBC claimed that Calgary Police Service see a reduction of $12-million in funding.
