“We always appreciate people’s input,” said Lloydminster Mayor Gerald Aalbers.
“Do you want to see more money put towards snow removal? Do you want to see more money towards roads, more money towards education?”
When it comes to allocating money, the city makes decisions on what will stay and go in the budget.
Budget time is a chance for elected officials in Lloydminster to engage with residents about costs and services in the city.
“I really like having that opportunity to engage with taxpayers, saying, well, what does this cost, what does that cost,” said Aalbers. “So they truly understand the cost factors.”
Residents are also encouraged to reach out and chat with a councillor if they have any questions.
“Council members are always open to be approached any time,” he said.
A paper copy of the survey is available at city hall or can be filled out online at yourvoicelloyd.ca/2026budget.
