Public input is invited now through to Friday, October 2, 2026, on the City’s 2027 Budget Citizen Survey, an important tool to help the newly elected Mayor and Council make informed decisions about future services and budget allocations. The survey will also focus on community safety, policing, taxes and City services to help the incoming Council understand trends year over year. Residents will also be asked if they support having the proposed 10-bed Cranbrook Kimberley Hospice House located at the Mount Baker RV Campground property, or located in one of four other potential locations: the Frost lands near St. Mary’s School, in the Highlands area, in the Slaterville area on 5th Street NW or the south area of the Kinsmen Quad Ball Park off of Willowbrook Drive.
