Input Deadline Near for Proposed Wawa Budget

Time is running out to provide input on the Municipality of Wawa's proposed operating budget.

Presented to Council early this month, the draft document proposes a 4% tax levy increase plus a 2% capital levy, which Treasurer Manuela Batovanja emphasizes is intended only for capital projects.

Batovanja outlines the increase in tax bills expected.

Batovanja notes increasing operational costs and necessary capital work will also mean a rise for water and sewer services.

The full budget presentation can be viewed on the Municipality's YouTube channel, or the municipal website, wawa.cc - input will be accepted until tomorrow, with plans for the budget to come up for a vote in the next Council meeting next Tuesday, February 18th.
