County Council will begin considering the 2026 municipal budget on Monday, December 1.


Did you know?

Every dollar in the municipal budget tells a story — about priorities, about values, and about what kind of community we’re building together.

This year, like every year, we’re aiming for a budget that reflects your needs, your input, and your vision for Prince Edward County. That means transparency in how decisions are made. It means clear information about where your tax dollars go. And it means opportunities for you to get involved — whether you're curious about a specific line item or just want the big picture.

This fall, staff will bring forward recommendations, Council will debate options, and we’ll be sharing updates every step of the way.

The 2026 budget is about more than funding the year ahead. It’s about building a municipality that works — today and tomorrow.

Help us shape the 2026 Operating and Capital budgets!

The County of Prince Edward is seeking public feedback and input to help inform the 2026 municipal budget. In its Strategic Plan 2023-2026, County Council committed to supporting resident participation in the budgeting process. Over the next several years, the municipality will seek to bring more voices to the conversation about how your tax dollars are spent.

Join the conversation:

The goals of this consultation:

  • Give the public the opportunity to provide their input in order to influence the allocation of public resources
  • Determine the level of support for Council's priorities and the level of desired investment in those priorities
  • Generate ideas from the public on how the municipality can further improve services and performance
  • Educate the public about the budget process as well as the opportunities and constraints that staff and council face when determining the budget each year
  • Explore other ways the municipality can engage residents on the budget in future years

Please note: Council has approved the water and wastewater rates for the period 2022-2026. The municipality will study the rates in 2026 in order to set them for 2027-2031. Public consultation will occur as part of that rate study.
