Budget and Financial Reporting

Municipal Budget

The Municipal Budget is a financial plan based on estimates of revenues and expenditures to provide a wide range of municipal services. Funding of operating and capital budgets is achieved through user fees, service charges, reserves, grants and property taxation. The amount of revenue required from property taxation is used to establish tax rates each year.

Land Acknowledgement

We recognize the traditional keepers of this land and, specifically our neighbours of the Alderville First Nation, with a formal territorial acknowledgement.

Welcome to the Gunshot Treaty Lands of 1788. It is on these lands and on the shores of the big lake, the Mississauga Anishinabeg met with the Crown to facilitate the opening of these lands for
settlement.

Let us be reminded of the responsibility we all have in making sure that we respect these lands and waters that give us life and sustain our livelihoods.
