2025-2027 Budget

Update - Thank you to everyone who participated, your feedback is appreciated. This engagement is now closed. A What We Heard report will be prepared and listed on this webpage.

Cochrane is gathering community input to guide the upcoming budget planning process.

About the project

When planning the budget, the Town estimates how much money will be spent (expenditures) to maintain public services and infrastructure, and how that money that will be generated (revenue) to meet the anticipated expenditures. Once these estimates are made and plans are set, staff develop the budget for Council’s consideration. Learn more about last year's budget.

As we continue to deliver services to our growing community, we are working to ensure that our business plans and budgets reflect the projects and service level that our residents have come to know and expect. And in doing so, we are committed to ensuring that the services we provide are aligned with the needs of Cochranites and delivered in an effective, efficient and financially sustainable way.
