Budget

The budget provides the foundation for delivery of services and achievement of Council’s Strategic Priorities.

2026 Budget

The 2026 budget maintains essential services, investing where it matters most and keeping costs as low as possible for residents.

The operating budget includes day-to-day expenses while the capital budget covers long-term investments, including infrastructure and facility costs.

The budget adopted by Council is expected to result in an estimated 3.3 per cent tax rate increase. Council sets municipal tax rates to generate revenue needed to offset municipal service expenditures with the annual Property Tax Rate Bylaw, passed each spring.
