Gary Carr Regional Chair Planning for a strong financial position in 2020 Council has approved Halton Region's 2020 Budget Directions Report, laying the foundation for next year's Budget. The Report provides guidelines to maintain service levels and keep property taxes low, all while supporting residents and businesses in our community. Achieving these objectives depends on our strong financial position, which includes our top credit rating. I am pleased to announce that S&P Global Ratings has affirmed our AAA rating once again! This advantage will help us continue to make strategic investments as we implement the final 2020 Budget. To learn more about our financial planning process, please visit halton.ca.
