Efficient management for a high-performance city
Ville de Brossard’s municipal council adopted the city’s 2026 budget at a special meeting held on December 15 at 6:30 pm. Totaling $249.9 million, the adopted budget includes several elements that reflect the Assaad administration’s rigorous management of public finances and responsible governance.
2.9% increase in tax bill for medium-value homes
“I am very proud to table this budget this evening, which demonstrates our commitment to limiting the increase in the tax rate to 2.9%, reflecting our desire to respect the financial capacity of taxpayers. This increase remains below the consumer price inflation rate (CPI) for the greater Montreal region,” declared Doreen Assaad, Mayor of Brossard.
Lowest debt service in eight years
The 2026 budget reflects an excellent financial debt situation, with total net long-term debt lower than that of cities of a similar size.
An investment plan to build the future
The three-year capital expenditure program (PTI) for 2026-2027-2028 is currently under review and should be confirmed for adoption in February 2026. The projects are divided into four categories:
- Infrastructure
- Sustainable development
- Community
- Administrative
“This budget is a commitment to every citizen of Brossard to continue building our city, where every dollar invested counts, where every project is thought out for tomorrow and where every decision made will prove its value in the eyes of taxpayers. Brossard is continuing to grow, and this plan is a concrete demonstration of our determination to ensure the sustainable and responsible development of our territory,” added Ms. Assaad.
“We are starting this new mandate on the right foot by proposing a budget in which our citizens will recognize themselves. By maintaining responsible tax management while intelligently planning the development of our infrastructures and facilities, Brossard will be able to fulfill the ambitions of its population,” emphasized Louis-Philippe Latour, Chairman of the Finance Committee and City Councillor.
“Debt stabilization is an exercise in rigor and responsible management whose objective is to plan investments according to citizens’ ability to pay.”
