Residents must submit applications to speak virtually, in person, via a pre-recorded message, or by writing before noon on January 17 on the city’s website.
According to the city’s finance staff, the 2025 budget will likely increase $102.9 million over 2024.
Last year, the city-approved budget saw a 5.8 per cent increase in residential property tax for 2024, which resulted in households paying $286 more.
Council is set to give the budget final approval on February 12.
