I thought I had posted the link before but apparently I did everything but in one of my last posts.
You can find the Region of Halton budget for 2013 online at www.halton.ca/budget
Its a large document with 570 pages to read through so as many have said to me, if you have a problem sleeping…open this up. 🙂
This budget, like most is very important to the future of the region of Halton and it contains funding for a number of initiatives such as the new 3 bag limit and blue box program, enhancements to the waste water management systems and spending for affordable housing. Overall the budget comes in line with a 0 % increase, not including spending on the police etc.
The Town of Milton Budget wont be made available until around November 26th which gives us a grand total of 14 days to review it, get feedback from the public and discuss it (Monday December 10th at 7pm…11th also if necessary.) I am working on getting some information if its available before then to post here online to get your feedback.
If you have any questions about the budget or anything contained in the document, please feel free to email me mike@mikecluett.ca and I can answer them for you. Regional Councillor Colin Best is having a budget meeting on November 27th at the Milton Sports Centre at 7pm Room #4 so send me an email if you can make it.
