Help shape West Kelowna’s future – Share your thoughts on the Draft 2025 Budget

Monday, Jan. 27, 2025

Be part of the conversation! Help guide the future of our City by sharing your input on the Draft 2025 Budget.

From Jan. 27 to Feb. 9, take the opportunity to review the Five-Year Financial Plan and Draft 2025 Budget. We want to hear from you!

This year’s proposed budget includes a net increase of 7.43 per cent for municipal taxes. As we continue planning for our city’s growth, your feedback is essential to ensuring our investments align with community priorities and maintain fiscal responsibility.

Balancing the needs of a growing community involves thoughtful decisions—ensuring current services are maintained while responding to the need for new, affordable programs, services, and infrastructure. Your feedback will help guide final decisions and ensure alignment with community priorities.

Join the conversation at our community open house:

• Date: Thursday, Feb. 6

• Time: 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

• Location: City Hall Council Chambers (3731 Old Okanagan Highway)
