Taber census may unlock future provincial funding
Mayor Bryant says the 2006 provincial budget offers no new funds for Taber beyond the existing 1.45 million per year for infrastructure, policing, and services. He notes the census will determine if population growth boosts per capita grants, with results expected in September and potential changes to 2007 funding.
