2025 City Budget Engagement

Your community. Your budget. A dark blue background.

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.
