The Milton Record

Infrastructure, Taxes & Fiscal Management

Growth used to pay for growth through development charges; provincial changes have cut that revenue while the demand for roads, facilities and services keeps rising. Every budget now chooses among higher taxes, more debt, deferred projects and reduced service levels. This site reconciles the Town’s capital financial statements line by line.

What is published: your ward, the date, and what you wrote, word for word. Your first name only if you tick the box. Never your email address or your full name. With an address, a comment appears once you confirm it from your inbox; without one, a person reads it first. A comment that names a candidate or a member of council is read by a person before it appears, whichever way it came.
