2026 Budget
The 2026 Capital and Operating Budget
The Town of Milton strives to foster a vibrant and inclusive community where residents thrive, businesses flourish, and nature is cherished.
Central to achieving this vision are investments in maintaining infrastructure and services such as firefighting, snow clearing, road maintenance, and the operation of parks, transit, recreation centres, and libraries.
The Town uses Council's direction through key documents - like the 2023-2027 Strategic Plan, master plans, and the Asset Management Plan - to guide community investment.
The annual budget process provides a way to prioritize and balance the allocation of available resources to support Town priorities and deliver services to the community.
The Budget Call report to Council on Sept. 8, 2025, provided an initial overview of anticipated 2026 budget pressures. The Mayor has tabled the 2026 Budget, which was released on Nov. 12, 2025, and will be considered by Council on Dec. 1, 2025.
The Town of Milton invites your input to help prioritize services and investments for the coming year. Council and staff will consider the comments you submit as part of the budget process.
