A 1.99% tax rate increase is required to support the budget. This is a 0.33% decrease from what was proposed in the interim budget that was adopted in December 2020.

In addition to the $800,000 in reductions made last year, an additional $500,000 in cost efficiencies and reduced spending have been implemented in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and an unpredictable economy.
