    Budgets posted online

    The finance page lists the 2026 and 2025 operating and capital budgets as PDFs. Both files are pictures of pages with no text we could read, so we did not use any budget figure. The audited statements show a budget column, which we used instead. Source

    The finance page lists audited statements for 2024 and earlier years. Both the 2024 and 2023 audit reports carry a qualified opinion (see the first question below). The 2024 report is dated October 15, 2025. Source

  1. Integrity Commissioner

    The Municipality's page names Expertise for Municipalities (E4m) as its Integrity Commissioner, and posts the inquiry protocol, the Code of Conduct by-law and one inquiry report presented to Council on November 29, 2023. We did not use that report in this pack.
