Budget 2022
The District of Squamish Council adopted the Five-Year Financial Plan for 2022 to 2026 on December 21, 2021.
The plan includes a property tax revenue requirement increase of 3.76% over 2021 (after growth is factored in) to fund projects and services required to meet the growth pressures, facility renewal and demand for services that Squamish currently faces.
To set property tax rates, Council considers The BC Assessment property assessment value notices and the percent of non-market change (growth), as that information becomes available.
