Thank you for your involvement!
Important Update:
Please note: On April 2nd, 2025 a Special Council meeting was held to present Council and the public with the draft budget and potential future economic model scenarios. Public input was encouraged prior to April 8th. On April 9th, the Department of Justice provided updated projected expenditures for the Municipality’s RCMP contribution. The amount was 6% higher than last year’s RCMP budget. This amount has been reflected in the updated economic scenarios and the April 14th Special Council meeting staff report to Council and the Public. Therefore, the documents for the April 14th Special Council meeting differ from those presented on April 2nd, due to needing to balance the budget based on this new number.
