Prince George Conference and Civic Centre is hosting a city budget town hall right now. The meeting continues until 8:30 p.m.

If you want to discuss with senior staff and city council how your tax dollars will be spent next year, you can do so right now.

The city is hosting a budget town hall meeting focused on the municipal budget this afternoon and evening at the Prince George Convention and Civic Centre today until 8:30 p.m.

The informal public open house started at 3:30 p.m., and it will lead into a question-and-answer session at 5:30 p.m. that will be livestreamed on YouTube. The live YouTube webcast is available here.

Participants can ask senior administrative staff and city council their questions remotely on Slido.com by entering the code #2315 122 to join the meeting.  

Any questions received through the Slido portal not answered will be addressed by city staff and will be posted on the city's website on the Get Involved page.

Results of today’s community engagement session will be tabulated and presented to city council’s finance and audit committee on Dec. 4.

Council will discuss the budget at meetings to be held Jan. 20 and Jan. 22, 2025.

Prince George residents are also invited to participate in the city’s online budget survey to help senior staff and council identify what people consider their spending priorities.

Taxpayers can enter their property tax assessment into the survey platform to see how their tax dollars are spent on such items as roads, transportation and city facilities. The online form allows users to adjust funding allocations to understand how changes to service levels affect their tax bill.

The survey is available here.

Friday Nov. 8 is the deadline for survey submissions.
