苏德伯里(Sudbury)的2026年预算获批准, 财产税增加3.9%, 引起居民托马斯·普赖斯(Thomas Price)的批评, 他认为预算扭曲了财政责任。 Greater Sudbury’s 2026 budget, approved with a 3.9% property tax increase, has drawn criticism from resident Thomas Price, who argues it misrepresents fiscal responsibility. 虽然总预算保持不变,但理事会通过推迟学院街道地下通道修理、削减艺术和发展赠款110万美元、提高用户费用以及动用储备金185万美元来转移费用。 While the overall budget remains unchanged, council shifted costs by deferring the College Street underpass repairs, cutting $1.1 million in arts and development grants, raising user fees, and using $1.85 million from reserves. 价格认为,这些举动转移了长期债务和推迟向未来纳税人支付赡养费,破坏了财务完整性,违反了《市政法》。 Price contends these moves transfer long-term debt and deferred maintenance to future taxpayers, undermining financial integrity and violating the Municipal Act. 他援引将短期光学置于可持续规划之上的模式,呼吁省级采取干预措施。 He calls for provincial intervention, citing a pattern of prioritizing short-term optics over sustainable planning.
