Past Budgets
2021 Budget
On May 11, 2021, Council approved the 2021 Financial Plan presented by the Financial Services department. The 2021-2025 Financial Plan is a fiscally responsible budget that balances the continuation of 2020 levels of service and addresses the financial realities of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Port Moody, like other municipalities, continues to face budget challenges with cost increases for wages and benefits, which make up the single highest cost driver in the budget. The City realized and included minimal new tax revenue from construction growth, as well as other small increases to fees and fines that offset the revenues needed from the proposed increase to taxation. New revenues from digital billboards help to significantly reduce the tax increase for 2021.
With the 2020 closure of the Flavelle sawmill (Mill and Timber), the City saw significant changes to assessed values and property classifications to the City’s 2021 tax roll. This would result in a re-distribution of taxes throughout the City. To offset the impact of this redistribution, $900,000 was transferred from City reserves to maintain an overall tax increase of approximately 3.55%.
Increased costs as the City continues to respond to the effects of COVID-19 are offset with the Provincial government’s COVID‐19 Safe Restart Grants for Local Governments.

2020 Budget
On May 12, 2020, Council approved the 2020 Financial Plan presented by the Financial Services department. The 2020 Financial Plan has been prepared to maintain the same level of service as the 2019 Financial Plan with the exception of unavoidable new services and COVID-19 related reductions. To ease the financial burden faced by taxpayers during the COVID-19 pandemic, Port Moody City Council made cuts to the 2020 Financial Plan that resulted in a reduced tax rate increase of 1.61 per cent, down from the previously-approved 3.62 per cent.
