By-law 2024-167: A by-law to amend Fees and Charges By-law 2025-151 (2025 operating budget tax increase)
This by-law, passed by council on November 12, 2024, authorizes the 2025 operating budget and sets a 2.5 per cent increase in municipal property taxes. The added revenue will help fund essential city services and support ongoing infrastructure projects across Wrenford.
If you own property in the city, this by-law affects your annual property tax bill. The 2.5 per cent increase applies to the 2025 tax year and will be reflected on your 2025 property tax bills. The by-law amends the Fees and Charges By-law 2025-151 to update the tax rates and budget allocations.
The funds raised through this increase will go toward maintaining roads, supporting the fire and paramedic services, funding waste collection, and improving public spaces. Council reviewed several budget options before settling on the 2.5 per cent rate, balancing the need for service improvements with the financial impact on residents and local businesses.
This by-law takes effect immediately upon passage. A certified copy of the by-law is available for public review at the Clerk's office at Wrenford City Hall.
