2018-2022 Financial Plan

FINANCIAL PLAN OVERVIEW

While looking at the percentage of a municipality’s liability servicing limit that has already been used provides useful information it can be impacted by decisions, such as to repay or refinance debt. For example in 2014 Mission shows 52% of the liability servicing limit in use, but then this drops to 6% in 2015. The 2015 number was impacted by a decision to repay debt in 2014.
