What do you think of the budget Town staff is recommending for next year in Halton Hills?
It’s time to brush up on the numbers and have your say at a series of meetings being held across the community.
The councillor-led ward meetings are drop-in style between 6 and 8 p.m., with opening remarks at 6:15 p.m.
Ward councillors and the mayor will be in attendance at the following events:
- Ward 1 Meeting: Tuesday, Oct. 22 in the Acton Arena's multi-purpose room, 415 Queen St. E.
- Ward 2 Meeting: Wednesday, Oct. 23 at Glen Williams Town Hall, 1 Prince St.
- Ward 3 Meeting: Wednesday, Oct. 30 at Hillsview Active Living Centre, 318 Guelph St., Georgetown
- Ward 4 Meeting: Tuesday, Oct. 29 in the Gellert Community Centre's Kinsmen Room, 10241 Eighth Line, Georgetown.
The current staff-recommended 2025 budget contains a proposed 10.86 per cent increase on the Town portion of the tax bill.
In addition to the Town, local residents pay taxes to Halton Region, which may raise taxes for its services by 3.6 per cent next year, and the school boards, which are forecasting a 0 per cent increase.
When you combine the Town, Region and school boards together, Halton Hills residents could be looking at an overall 6.56 per cent jump on their property tax bill in 2025.
