Like many municipalities across Ontario, Chatham-Kent is changing its budget process from an annual one to a multi-year budgeting approach.
At tonight’s council meeting, council will discuss implementing the multi-year process by having administration develop recommendations for the draft 2024-2027 operating budget.
The change to a multi-year format from an annual process is a significant change, but it’s seen as a positive step, as it aligns longer-term goals and objectives with longer-term funding plans.
