The City of Winnipeg is undertaking a consultation process to engage the citizens of Winnipeg in shaping the direction of the City’s budget. All across Canada, municipalities are facing an infrastructure crisis. The list of items needing repair includes streets, bridges, sidewalks, community centers, libraries, and sewer and water systems. Based on current revenues, the City of Winnipeg anticipates shortfalls in its 2014 and 2015 operating budgets of $74 million and $94 million, respectively. Under the City of Winnipeg Charter, the City must balance its budget. Given this challenge, the City of Winnipeg is seeking to understand what the citizens of Winnipeg want and expect from its civic government. The City of Winnipeg would like to know what the citizens of Winnipeg think about
- What the priorities of the City should be
- What choices they would make if they were in charge of the City’s budget.
