Every year, the annual budget is established to provide a foundation for the County of Barrhead to meet the service and infrastructure needs of residents & businesses. The budget reflects spending priorities and levels of service for County landowners.
The County welcomes public input on the municipal budget! Each year, the County seeks public feedback to help inform Council's decisions on the annual budgets. This is a great opportunity to give input on your usage of County services, priorities for municipal spending, and considerations for balancing the budget!
