OLDS — The town is conducting its annual budget survey so taxpayers can have their say in how their tax dollars are spent.
Budget Survey 2023 is available online at www.olds.ca/engagement and is made up of 42 questions. Town officials say it should take about 20-25 minutes to complete.
For people without internet access, a paper copy of the survey can be picked up at the town administration office during regular business hours. Survey submissions will be accepted until Sept. 15.
Residents can also give their input on what they’d like to see in the budget or raise any other concerns via a new in-person town initiative – Coffee With Councillors – in which certain town councillors make themselves available at six different locations until Sept. 12.
The schedule for Coffee With Councillors is available online at https://www.olds.ca/councilcoffee.
