At their January 29 meeting, Meaford's council approved the municipal budgets for 2018.
The municipal levy will increase by three percent in 2018, but thanks to a reduction in the education rate along with a small 0.36 percentage increase in the county rate, the blended rate increase for Meaford property owners in 2018 will be approximately 1.25 percent. The increase will add roughly $45 to the annual property tax bill of an average home in the municipality.
