Have your say about the city's budget

A new mayor and council, made up of a mixture of rookies and veterans, is ready to tackle a city budget consisting of new challenges and perennial issues.

It’s important they make decisions based on their experience and vision.

That’s why we elected them.

It’s also important they listen to the public and hear your concerns and dreams for the city.

After all, this is where you live. It’s your home.

On Friday Feb. 3 we’ll pose questions about the budget to Mayor Matthew Shoemaker and CAO Malcolm White.

If you have a question or comment about how municipal tax dollars should be spent and our priorities, here’s a chance to share your thoughts.

Email your question to SooToday Editor Frank Rupnik.

Get your submissions in before noon on Thursday, Feb 2.

We will relay them to the mayor and CAO.

The question-and-answer session will be recorded Friday afternoon to be broadcast soon after.
