Budget 2025

Aurora Town Council Adopts Budget 2025

On Thursday, November 28, Aurora Town Council adopted the Town’s multi-year operating budgets for 2025 and 2026, along with the 10-Year Capital Plan, reflecting a commitment to maintaining high-quality services while investing in key infrastructure projects to support Aurora’s growth and sustainability.

The approved tax-levy increase for 2025 is 3.5 per cent and 2.9 per cent for 2026. For an average home assessed at $800,000, this translates to an annual increase of $87.52 in 2025 and $75.05 in 2026. These increases include a one per cent rise in capital reserve contributions, ensuring Aurora’s long-term financial strength and its ability to fund significant community projects.
