The municipal budget presents the City’s revenues and expenses, allowing Pointe-Claire to offer services to the population, maintain its infrastructure, or carry out projects. The budget is generally adopted during a special meeting in December of the year preceding its implementation.
The Finance Department prepares the budget in collaboration with all City services and the members of the municipal council. It is an exercise in balance, meaning that expenses must correspond to revenues. All of this is to provide quality services to citizens, ensure the maintenance and improvement of the City’s infrastructure, while respecting the population’s ability to pay.
