- Collection Procedures: The bylaw outlines the process for tax collection, including payment deadlines, methods of payment, and penalties for late payments. This ensures efficient collection of taxes to fund community services.
- Budget and Allocation: The bylaw supports the annual budget process, detailing how tax revenues will be allocated to various municipal services, such as public safety, infrastructure maintenance, and community development.
- Public Participation: The bylaw encourages resident engagement by providing opportunities for public input during the budget and taxation discussions, ensuring transparency and community involvement in fiscal decisions.
