It’s time to start planning for 2027 and Bruce County is inviting community members to help shape the next Budget. The 2027 Budget Survey is now open at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/BCBudget27 and remains open until 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, July 5, 2026.
The annual County Budget guides the future of our communities by asking for your input about the services, programs and infrastructure you rely on every day. It’s an opportunity to identify priorities and build a strong Bruce County.
“It’s important that our residents share their thoughts about priorities for the community,” said Bruce County Warden Luke Charbonneau. “This survey is an opportunity to help guide the process for building a budget that invests in what matters most when it comes to services and infrastructure.”
The anonymous survey builds on the County’s commitment to transparent, accountable financial planning. It only takes a few minutes to provide feedback that will help inform decisions about roads, economic development, long-term care and more.
