2010 - 2014 Financial Plan

About This Document
The Financial Plan is available as pdf files below, or you may pick up a hard copy of the Financial Plan at City Hall.

This document is designed to present the financial plan for the City of Kamloops over the next five years. There are four budgets that tie this plan together. They are the general operating, water, sewer, and capital budgets, which direct City revenues and expenditures. The City's financial position is detailed in the most recently published Audited Financial Statements along with definitions and explanations.

The general operating budget sets out how much money the taxpayers pay for essential services and sets out the various revenues the City receives through property taxes and other sources.

The water and sewer utility budgets present the revenue and expenses to provide water and sanitary waste removal services.

The capital budget sets out the requirements and funding sources to restore, replace, and renovate the City's infrastructure, such as our buildings, parks, roads, storm sewers, water system, sanitary sewer system, fleet, and technology.

To understand these budgets, the book is divided into five parts:
