e-Town Hall Budget Meeting - January 29th - 6:00 pm

Please join us Monday, January 29, 2018, at 6 p.m. to provide your input on the draft 2018 - 2022 Five Year Financial Plan. Help shape how your tax dollars are spent on the services you value, such as streets, parks, community centres, police and fire protection.

While the event takes place in Council Chambers at City Hall (4850 Argyle Street), the e-format means that comments and questions will be received from those in attendance at the meeting, as well as those viewing from the comfort of their home.

The meeting will focus on the Plan and provide community members an opportunity to voice their opinions, suggest new ideas, and ask questions of Council. The feedback provided at the meeting will help inform the City’s budget direction and spending towards the services that residents and businesses want and need.
