Investing in Mississauga: Learn More About the City’s 2023 Budget Priorities

City services | January 3, 2023

Mississauga residents are invited to participate in the annual city-wide Budget Engagement Session about the City’s proposed 2023 Budget. During the session, residents will hear from Mississauga Mayor Bonnie Crombie, Members of Council and Senior City leadership about the City’s Budget priorities, programs and services. Residents will also have the ability to ask Budget-related questions.

The 2023 Budget focuses on an investment in the City’s infrastructure, including transit, roads and emergency services. Mississauga remains committed to advancing public safety (e.g. building more fire stations), progressing on climate change commitments (e.g. lower greenhouse gas emissions) and continues to implement Vision Zero actions (e.g. the expansion of Automated Speed Enforcement).

The City has minimized tax-funded new initiatives to manage inflation, supply chain disruptions, and other pandemic-related expenses, which have been putting pressure on the City and its residents.
