City of Regina outlines plan to save $2.9M in 2023 budget
“We will take $20,000 in savings and we will take $200,000 in savings,” said Regina mayor Sandra Masters in an interview with Global News. “It’s the idea that you form the habit of continuously looking for ways to potentially invest in something.”According to the city, a 25-per cent reduction in the travel and training budget is expected to save the city $500,000.The consulting budget will also be cut by roughly 20 per cent for an approximate savings of $425,000.
The biggest savings are expected to come from operational efficiencies, including civic fleet maintenance and “fleet ratcheting,” which will reduce the number of fleet assets, according to the report. The city expects to reduce spending in this area by $784,000. “The training that’s necessary to do the work is going to continue to happen,” Masters said Wednesday after an executive committee meeting. “It’s all coming back into the leadership table to determine.”
