2024 City Budget Engagement

This engagement is now finished. Thank you for your participation!

Your community. Your budget. A dark blue background.

City Council approved the 2024 municipal operating and capital budget bylaws on Jan. 16, 2024.

Providing services to our community is much like running a business. That business is governed by Council's direction in the form of strategic priorities and approved service levels. The budget provides the financial resources to fund those priorities and to provide municipal services to the community.

Like a business, the City must:

Ensure that the way we invest, spend and generate revenue provides value to our residents
Evaluate how we are delivering services and make improvements to processes and practices when necessary
Plan for the future by forecasting service requirements and related capital investment

As a resident, the budget impacts you. Every. Single. Day. So have your say.

Get involved!

Before Sept. 8, complete a brief survey to provide feedback on the 2024 budgets and future budget engagement
To complete the survey by phone or to request a paper copy, call 613-546-0000
Use the Ideas tool to let us know how we can involve more people in budget conversations
Watch for us at events around Kingston in August and September
