When an essential annual process undergoes modifications and inherits a bunch of new words, it sounds like the perfect opportunity to bring back Mayor Frank Campion for a clarifying conversation.
The newly legislated Strong Mayor Powers mean the City of Welland’s mayor is responsible for bringing forward a municipal budget, the crucial document that guides staff on allocating the community’s tax dollars.
It’s a given that when something changes, questions arise.
How will this year’s process unfold compared to previous years? What does budget deliberation and Council involvement look like? What words will be used to explain what’s taking place?
Perhaps most importantly – because everyone in Welland is affected – will residents have the opportunity to follow the process?
It’s a privilege to be asking and answering these questions and more through today’s episode with Mayor Campion. Residents are encouraged to visit www.engagewelland.ca/your-2024-budget-talks to learn more about the budget, ask questions, leave comments, and stay up to date with the process.
