Clarenville's Budget 2015

Clarenville’s Budget 2015 Chair of Finance, Councilor Heber Smith rose in Council’s December 16 th meeting as presented Clarenville’s proposed budget for 2015.    The balanced budget laid out plans for the projected collection and expenditure of $9,757,074 in 2015.  Budgets are easy in times of growth because as the tax base grows, so do tax revenues.  Such is not so much the case in Clarenville this year.  Growth has slowed and revenue growth has not been able to keep up with the demands of operating the town. Planned Investments in 2015 A further $1million in Road Improvement – in addition to the $700,000 spent in 2014 Road and water/sewer redevelopment of Adam’s Place, Blundon Drive, Warricks Road, Park/Viking Streets, and the east entrance to Clarenville on Memorial Drive      New firefighting and communications equipment for the Clarenville Fire Department   Increased honorariums for the volunteer fire department   New front-end Loader and additional plow opera
