Each year, the Comox Valley Regional District updates the budget (or financial plan). The plan includes the five-year operational budgets and ten-year capital requirements of each service from one budget year to the next. Each service is reviewed and budgets are created based on the board’s core service strategic priorities, approved work plans, and sound financial practices. Between January 27 and February 23, individual service budgets are presented to their respective boards, committees and commissions for review and feedback.
You can find individual budgets broken down by core service (Electoral Area Services, Finance and Administration, Recreation, Regional Emergency Services, Regional Sustainability, Sewage Treatment, Transportation, and Water Supply) by clicking on the tiles below.
