Lippert: NORD Owes City 700-Grand

By Pete McIntyre 107.5 KISSFM

A political discussion will take place this week over a matter of 700-thousand dollars. City of Vernon officials claim that how much NORD owes it for overhead charges related to water and parks contracts between the two agencies. Mayor Wayne Lippert says the charges are one of the main reasons the city is having to consider a five percent tax increase next year. "What I understand from staff, using the Regional District policy, the City of Vernon should be getting an extra $716 000, approximately, that it has not been receiving."Lippert says the issue will be discussed at this week's Greater Vernon Services meeting.
