Adjust each service and see what it means for the average home
The District of Chartham plans to spend $14,000,000 on services in 2027. The average home, assessed at $985,000, pays about $2,480 a year in municipal tax.
How it works
There's no right answer. Set each service where you'd like it and see what it would mean for the average home.
- Every service starts at what the District plans to spend in 2027.
- Raise or lower a service with its slider, or the + and − buttons. Increases show in blue with a plus sign; cuts show in red with a minus sign.
- Keep an eye on the total. It shows what your choices would do to the average home's municipal tax for the year.
- Police is set by the RCMP contract, so you'll see it, but you can't change it.
- Press Reset at any time to go back to the District's plan.
In a real consultation your choices would go to Council. This demo keeps your choices, without your name, so we can see how people use it.
