2024 Budget Survey

19 June 2023

Online survey is your chance to share your service and funding priorities for the upcoming budget year

No matter where you live in Oxford County, the 2024 Budget survey is your chance to have a say on which services should be a priority in the coming budget year.

The survey takes only 5-10 minutes to complete. Information collected from the budget survey will help participating municipalities--including the Town of Tillsonburg--know how well their services are understood, how they are valued, and which ones are a priority for residents. 

Residents who live in Tillsonburg are asked about local area municipal services, such as fire services, building and drainage services, parks and recreation, by-law enforcement and more.

Residents from all eight of Oxford’s municipalities are asked through the survey about services provided by Oxford County, such as long-term care at Woodingford Lodge, paramedic services, human (social) services, water and wastewater, community planning and others.

Each participating municipality receives its own survey results to help plan 2024 budgets.

The 2024 Budget survey is open now until August 31, 2023. To take the survey visit www.speakup.oxfordcounty.ca/2024budgetsurvey/survey_tools/2024budget-tillsonburg
