November 20, 2024: Residents are invited to attend Coffee with Council, an opportunity to learn more about the budget process, have your say about how the Town plans to spend its 2025 budget, and connect with Council and Staff in an informal setting. Join us at the Collingwood Public Library, located at 55 Ste Marie St. on the 3rd floor, between 4:00 and 6:00 p.m. All are welcome, no RSVP required. An option to view the presentation virtually will be available.
December 2, 2024: Council will receive the second draft of the Budget, including any changes from Draft 1, which will be presented in a newly designed budget book that is more user-friendly and compliant with accessibility standards.
December 16, 2024: Council will receive the third draft of the budget if needed, otherwise it is anticipated that Council will approve the budget on this date. If a fourth draft is required, the final budget will be presented for approval on January 13, 2025.
