👉The City of Thunder Bay has presented its proposed 2024 budget, featuring a 5.5% increase in the municipal tax levy. City Manager Norm Gale highlighted that while the initial proposal suggested a 6.6% increase, council directives led to maintaining it at 5.5% or below. Gale assured no cuts to programs and services, emphasizing investments in infrastructure. The tax levy, crucial for funding city services and capital projects, aims at $538 million, with 43% sourced from the levy. Notably, the increase supports community partners, including the Thunder Bay Police Service, comprising 30% of the proposed hike.✅ .
