How Does It Impact You?

Council passed a 2.18% tax increase in 2018. The impact on the typical single family dwelling, assessed at $530,600, was $35.06 for the year. Council had contemplated a 2.58% increase; however that amount was able to be reduced due to higher than expected growth in the community over the preceeding year.

As in past years, the tax increase was required to continue to maintain healthy reserve levels, ensure adequate funding is available to upgrade or replace ageing infrastructure and equipment, keep up with rising market costs for goods and services, and improve service levels for a rapidly growing and urbanizing municipality.
