Winnipeggers should temper expectations ahead of Wednesday’s budget discussion, says committee chair
“There’s a lot of these security concerns about transit. There are concerns about crime in the city in general and about drug use. And these are all things that are really weighing on the city.” said Moore.Father watches live on phone app as video shows strangers entering home while child is alone
“I think the mayor is going to want to address that in the budget, but I think it’s going to be difficult for him to do that, given the resources that are available.” In January, Premier Heather Stefanson hinted the province would bump up the amount of money it transferred to the city but Winnipeg city councillor Jeff Browaty said there’s no word on that yet.
“We’ve suffered with lower transit ridership, lower parking revenues and higher costs for things like fuel labor.”It’s been quite challenging for all municipal governments in Manitoba and across the country to deal with these realities while trying to keep taxes, of course, as affordable as possible for residents.”
Browaty said some help from the feds and the province would definitely be appreciated “we are still waiting for word on our base grant from the provincial government. It’s been frozen since 2017.”“I’m hoping that this staffing we’re seeing with the province. Will lead to more revenue from the province for a lot of things,” said Moore.
