It looks like taxes are going up in Quesnel, but not by as much as was first anticipated.
Residents were originally looking at a 4.6 percent increase when Council’s Financial Sustainability and Audit Committee took its first swing at the operating budget back in February, but that figure has now been reduced to 2.5 percent.
Director of Finance Kari Bolton, speaking at Tuesday night’s City Council meeting, noted that the committee had made some adjustments based on the feedback that it heard.
