Strathcona County proposes a 5.18% tax hike for 2026 to fix a $16.3M deficit and stabilize finances.
Strathcona County proposes a 5.18% tax increase for 2026 to address a $16.3 million deficit, stabilize finances, and maintain services, with a focus on rebuilding reserves over new capital projects.
The increase, adding $116 annually for a $475,000 home, includes the final year of a two-per-cent recreation levy funding a 2028 indoor field house.
Adjusted from an earlier 6.63% projection through budgeting reforms, funds will cover inflation, population growth, 42.79 new positions, asset management, and tax smoothing to prevent future spikes.
County leaders emphasize fiscal caution and long-term sustainability.
