Smiths Falls council looks poised to approve its 2023 budget at the end of the month.
The horseshoe all voiced support for the 3rd draft presented Monday and the associated tax, water, and wastewater increases.
Councillor Peter McKenna thinks staff did a fine job getting the numbers to where they are.
Property taxes are set to increase 3.38%, while water and wastewater increase 5.5% and 3.5% respectively.
Stephen Robinson is happy with how his first budget as a councillor shaked out.
There’s nearly $18.5 million in capital projects slated for 2023, and a 10.4% jump in the town’s operational budget.
There’s now a two week period for public feedback and a notice of intent to pass the budget, which is slated for the February 21st meeting.
