Municipal Budgets

In an attempt to be as transparent to the public as possible, the Corporate Services department provides multiple reports to keep our ratepayers informed of where their tax dollars are being spent and the long-term budgetary planning for the stability of the County. This includes budget reports such as the County’s annual budget reports, the approved budgets, and the operating and capital plans.

Annual Budget Reports

The Annual Budget Report is a summary of the budgeted activities of the County, including details on the County, Strategic Plan and Budget Priorities, the Budget Process, Operating and Capital Budgets, Tax Rates, Reserves, and many other budget details.
