2027 Budget Process: Proposed Uses Fees and Charges

Thank you for joining the conversation regarding the 2027 Budget Process: Proposed User Fees and Charges Survey!

The Township begins its annual Budget process by reviewing and updating its User Fees and Charges By-law. User fees are an important tool for collecting fees directly from the users who benefit from a service, rather than having the service be partially or wholly funded through property taxes. For example, those submitting Planning Act applications to re-zone their property pay an application fee (or user fee) to the Township to help offset the costs associated with processing their application.

For more information regarding the annual Budget Process and User Fees and Charges view the FAQ's.

Council is seeking the public’s feedback on the proposed 2027 User Fees and Charges By-law before it is considered for approval.

The proposed 2027 User Fees and Charges Report will be available on September 11, 2026 under the Documents section of this page and on the September 16, 2026 Council Calendar page.

In addition to attending the Public Information Meeting, the public is invited to complete the survey below and provide feedback on the proposed fees. The survey will close on September 28, 2026, at 12:00 p.m.
