Editor’s note: Last week’s front-page story, “Council approves 8.62% municipal tax hike,” contained some erroneous budget numbers for individual expenditures. The Lake Report regrets the errors.
The exact figure budgeted for legal fees is $1,151,870 and $2,120,000 is set aside for the capital reserve fund.
The fire department’s proposed capital budget for 2020 is $445,000.
The town will spend $260,750 on corporate services, $1,868,000 on parks, recreation and facilities, and $300,000 on flood prevention.
The $500,000 washroom replacement at 92 Queen St. was included in the town staff report by error and staff doesn’t intend to proceed with the project other than a potential design.
