North Perth gave the go-ahead for staff to move forward with the draft budget for 2023.
The budget, presented by Councillor Lee Anne Andriessen at the March 8 meeting, brings a 3.6 percent tax levy increase for the average residential and agricultural property in the municipality.
That increase represents a $2.20 per week increase for the average residential property and a $2.77 increase for the average agricultural property.
The draft budget in North Perth will now proceed to a public consultation, which is tentatively scheduled for the week of April 17.
Residents can view the full 2023 Draft Operating Budget Report available on the North Perth website: www.northperth.ca/budget.
