Administration and Council want to thank those that took the time to participate in both phases of the budget engagement surveys. Your input will help the Town determine the community’s priorities and where Council needs to focus for the 2021 budget. Phase 2 began in early October and dug deeper into the community’s priorities by asking residents and business owners to make critical choices on community service levels and user fees. Phase 2 provided an opportunity for the community to share their priorities on specific service level changes and user fees. All comments and community feedback will be provided in the budget discussions and debates that will take place with Council and the Finance & Audit Committee between November 17 and 19. The meetings will be live-streamed for public viewing. Final approval of the 2021 budget will go before Council at the December 14 meeting.

The first phase of the budget consultation was a survey, that ran from September 8 until September 23, to help Council establish the budget guidelines for building the 2021 budget. The first public engagement was a check-in on the impact that COVID-19 has had on residents and what that means for the types of Town services they will need in 2021.
