Future Perspective – Challenges

Critical community assets are aging and need ongoing funding for replacement and maintenance

  • 1. Competition for talent and skilled labour in the region
  • 2. Cost of training, development, and retention
  • 1. Limited revenue opportunities under the Community Charter
  • 2. Additional property charges from other agencies

To be sustainable growth needs to pay for growth and should not impose a financial burden on Port Moody taxpayers Balancing wants and needs with the community’s ability to pay Asset/ Infrastructure Renewal Work Force Revenue Constraints Growth and Development Service Levels
