We read Middlesex Centre's own documents for this site in October 2026; the Sources page lists which ones. The comparisons with other places still come from the Province's yearly reports.

When Middlesex Centre's budget is decided
The budget sets what the town spends and how much property tax goes up. These are the dates it is released, discussed and voted on, and how you can take part. Free for everyone.
Middlesex Centre's mayor has strong-mayor powers, so the Mayor directs staff to prepare the budget. The Municipality's 2027 budget page says the survey is done, the budget working group has been named, and that the 2027 timeline may be affected by the October election and is expected to extend into the new year. The page gives no date for when the draft budget will go to council, so we show none.

How to have your say
- The Municipality's budget page names its Acting Director of Finance as the person to contact by email or phone at any time with questions or comments on the budget.
- Council meets on the first Wednesday of the month at 9:30 am and the third Wednesday at 5:30 pm, and meetings are broadcast live on the Municipality's YouTube channel.

Everything here comes from the Municipality's Budget 2027 page and its Mayor and Council page, read on October 5, 2026. The 2027 page was first posted June 2, 2026 and says the budget timeline may be affected by the October election. We did not find a date for the draft budget or for council's decision, and have not guessed one.
