Russell RM council defeated a motion to raise per capitation for the Russell Binscarth Recreation District from 8.50 to 10.00, risking loss of services and forcing the district to cut programs as Pollock and the recreation commission warn of layoffs and omitted overtime. The dispute draws in towns, pooling partners, and local officials over funding, governance, and future operations.
