Each year, the Municipality of Central Elgin goes through an annual budget process to develop budgets that support municipal operations and offer the programs and services needed to sustain the quality of life in the community.
The Budget is more than just numbers. It reflects itself in the activities and services you receive, which are in line with the Council's strategic plans. Whenever your garbage is collected, you turn on the faucet, your road gets cleared of snow, you visit a park, or take a stroll on a sidewalk, trail, or the beach, you see your tax dollars at work. The Municipality is committed to providing efficient and cost-effective services to our communities.
The Council of the Municipality annually approves the operating budget and the capital budget:
The Capital Budget supports the development of new, and the maintenance / rehabilitation of existing infrastructure, such as roads, parks, sidewalks, buildings and vehicles and equipment.
The Operating Budget includes the expenditures required to deliver day to day services. It also includes revenues such as user fees, interest income, and building permit fees etc.
