Home /Surplus spent on roads projects
News19 May 2021
By Chad Ingram
A 2020 surplus for the Township of Minden Hills that would have totalled some $1.1 million has formally totalled just more than $106,000, with the township spending the bulk of the large, anticipated surplus on a series of public works projects.
Minden Hills councillors received a report on the surplus from finance director Lorrie Blanchard during a May 13 online meeting. As Blanchard explained, 72 per cent of the $1.1 million surplus came from wages and benefits from unfilled staffing positions in various departments, “either positions that didn’t get filled in 2020, or were much later in the year getting filled than what we had hoped.”

After five rounds of budget talks, the 2021 Minden Hills draft budget was put before a public meeting on March 11.
The draft budget contains a levy increase of 3.75 per cent over the 2020 budget, equating to a tax rate increase of 3.08 per cent for residents. For residential properties, this will equate to an increase in property taxation of $11.47 for every $100,000 of assessment at the lower-tier level. For commercial properties, this will equate to an increase of $17 for every $100,000 of assessment at the lower-tier level.
The budget is scheduled to be passed March 25.
