Public Input

The Municipality of North Perth is using our online engagement platform Your Say North Perth as a tool to conduct public consultation on the 2019 budget.

Thank you to everyone who gave their feedback through our Pre-Budget Survey. We received 43 completed surveys (online and paper copies) between November 1, 2018 and December 5, 2018.

The survey results were presented to North Perth Council on December 12, 2018 at the 2019 Budget Visioning Council Meeting. You can find a summary of the survey results by viewing the Pre-Budget Survey Results Council Report.

Although the feedback received throug the survey cannot be assumed to represent the opinions of the North Perth community as a whole, it does provide valuable information for Council to consider during the 2019 budget process.

Visit the 2019 Budget project page on Your Say North Perth to learn more. Stay tuned for more budget public input opportunities!

Understanding budget basics

A budget is a planned itemized summary of money coming into the Municipality of North Perth. It outlines how that money will be spent over a specified period of time. We prepare an annual budget that is approved by Council.
