Town considers funding options as ambulance plan delayed
The town debates funding for ambulance services amid a province wide project cost estimate of 55 million, later doubled by regional authorities. A March 31 2005 budget deadline looms, with options including tax increases, reserves, deficits or reallocating funds to cover 2005 expenses. Palliser and Peace Country begin a 13 million pilot this year, delaying provincial transfer for at least 18 months. CHR officials and Pam Whitnack support the delay to gain time for decisions.
