While the budget surpluses will be going towards a list of needs around the city, Sharp didn’t consider the additional items “spending.”
The amendment package, brought forward by Ward 12 Coun. Evan Spencer, draws a total of $139.7 million in anticipated surpluses from both operational and capital budgets. Civic partners like Vibrant Communities Calgary, Tourism Calgary, Sport Calgary, Calgary Economic Development and Calgary Arts Development Agency are getting funding boosts over the four-year budget.
“Why is this important?” Gondek said. “Because our provincial government comes to the table when we show an investment like this.”Permit fees for outdoor patios and cafes – started early in the COVID-19 pandemic – will be offset for businesses.
Council lacks communication skills with the public, no word on cuts to non-essential expenses, no mention of increasing revenues from the city's businesses or services. Assume they all have no idea what they are doing....
It sure as hell doesn't support me!
