Each year’s budget is part of a Five-Year Financial Plan that sets out the resources, revenues and expenditures required to deliver services to the community. 

The Community Charter requires that Council adopt a Five-Year Financial Plan each year prior to adopting the annual property tax bylaw. Based on various long-term plans and strategies, the plan includes specific details for the current year and a guideline for the upcoming four years.

Council approved the 2023 – 2027 Financial Plan unanimously at the May 9, 2023, Council meeting. You can click the graphic boxes below for details.
