Puslinch Council Eyes 4.9% Tax Increase In 2024
Council here could not decide if a third full-time staff person is needed at the Puslinch Community Centre (PCC), even though council had increased rental fees at the facility and previously acknowledged staff needs to be present during rentals to ensure the building and equipment is not damaged.
Treasurer Mary Hasan presented the 2024 draft operating budget to council on Dec. 13.
She stressed that even though revenue is expected to increase to $617,000 in 2024, it’s not enough to cover increases in mandated items like cost-of-living wage increases, conservation authority levies, fuel costs, contract services, dispatch fees and insurance.
