Please see the notice attached below regarding a Proposed Amendment to the City's 5 Year Financial Plan, to be considered by City Council at the Regular Meeting of Council, October 5th, 2020 at 7:00pm in Council Chambers.
The following are changes to the Operating Fund proposed in the 2020 Amended Financial Plan Bylaw No. 3457, 2020. These changes are proposed to address expenses not anticipated when the initial Financial Plan was adopted in April. The proposed changes will not result in any change to City servicing levels or approved operating budgets, instead drawing funds from reserves and accumulated surplus.
