Budget 2024

Aurora Town Council Adopts 2024 to 2026 Budget.

On Tuesday, December 12, Aurora Town Council on Tuesday adopted the municipality’s 2024 to 2026 Budget with a 2.8 per cent increase to the tax levy in 2024, and an additional 1 per cent for capital infrastructure projects. This increase translates to an additional $92.15 on the Town’s share of the tax bill for a home assessed at $800,000.

The 2024 to 2026 Budget, which incudes the multi-year operating budget and 10-Year Capital Plan, maintains existing service levels while also making strategic investments to strengthen the quality of life for community members and to accommodate growth.
