Surrey property and road taxes are set to increase, with the city considering a 2.8 percent property tax hike and a one percent road levy increase. Mayor Brenda Locke stated that this would likely be the smallest property tax increase Surrey has ever experienced.

The mayor emphasized that the city’s construction and amenities are crucial in these uncertain times, which is why efforts were made to keep the tax increase as low as possible.

Mayor Locke also announced that the public will have the opportunity to comment on the proposal until April 11. After that, it will be reviewed by the Finance Committee during an initial reading on April 14. She expressed hope that the proposal could be passed by the City Council on April 28.
