Each year the Town of Newmarket undertakes a detailed budget planning process to ensure we are meeting the needs of our community now and in the future. This includes valuable input from the community which helps guide the Strategic priorities of Council. While planning for the 2025 budget, the Town continues to face significant budget pressures including increased costs of goods and services, and inflation. We know that our community is feeling these pressures as well. Our goal is to continue to find the balance between keeping municipal taxes low, while maintaining the high level of services that make Newmarket a top place to live in Canada, investing in our assets and preparing for the future.
