Oak Bay, BC encouraged residents to provide funding input with Citizen Budget portal

Citizen Budget was an interactive tool that allowed residents to adjust program funding for the 2018-2019 budget. This tool incorporated sliders that helped users add, subtract, or hold steady on budget items. Each adjustment led to a recalculation of the resident's property tax. Participants in this two-week pilot submitted their budget suggestions through the website. City officials also sought feedback on usability to improve future iterations.

Saanich, BC Fire Departments in three municipalities agree to align fire services and automatic aid

The District of Saanich Fire Department has partnered with the Victoria and Oak Bay Fire Departments to ensure the alignment of fire services across the three municipalities.

Additionally, the departments adopted an automatic aid model in order to eliminate the need for departments to formally request assistance.
