Your City Budget

The City of Brantford recognizes that municipal budget decisions have a profound impact on the daily lives of residents. From garbage collection, to public transit, to the safety of our neighbourhoods, budgets sit at the heart of residents’ quality of life and the community’s future development.

Final 2026 Budget

We are pleased to introduce OpenBook, a new online tool residents can access to learn more about the City operating and capital budgets and how the multi-year budget works.

2026 is year 3 of the 2024-2027 multi-year budget. As part of the multi-year budget process, the City is required to confirm the budget each year.

Staff from all local boards are responsible for the development of their respective budgets.

Visit the City’s OpenBook page to learn more and review the confirmed 2026 operating and capital budgets in detail.
