Richmond, BC – The City of Richmond is inviting residents and taxpayers to provide feedback on its proposed Consolidated 5 Year Financial Plan (2026–2030), Bylaw No. 10727. The plan sets out how the City will fund services, infrastructure and utilities while meeting community needs over the next five years.
Feedback can be submitted until Sunday, January 18, 2026, online, by email or by written submission to City Hall.
Each year, Council approves three budgets:
- Operating Budget – funds day-to-day services, approved allocations for grants, and certain one-time expenditures
- Capital Budget – invests in new and replacement infrastructure and equipment
- Utility Budget – supports water, sewer, flood protection, garbage and recycling services
The Consolidated 5 Year Financial Plan is based on these budgets, economic forecasts and expected impacts on revenues and spending. It provides a long-term roadmap to manage City resources responsibly and ensures balanced annual operating budgets.
The proposed plan and annual budgets are available at LetsTalkRichmond.ca and richmond.ca/5YFP.
Feedback is due by 11:59pm on Sunday, January 18, 2026, and can be provided via LetsTalkRichmond.ca, by email to finance@richmond.ca or by mail to:
Finance Department, City of Richmond
6911 No. 3 Road, Richmond, BC V6Y 2C1
