The Waterloo Regional Police Services Board has approved its operating budget for the year.
Board Chair, Tom Galloway says the budget of $145.6-million was approved after cuts of over $430,000 were made.
Galloway says some small equipment was cut, software reassigned and reductions were made in conference and travel costs. He says the budget represents a minimal increase on property tax bills, $10.70 cents or .6%.
The board also reviewed complaints made against officers.
Galloway says there were 78 registered complaints last year and 212 letters of appreciation.
