Financial Information

The District of West Vancouver has adopted a Long Term Financial Plan (LTFP), for resiliency, to provide high levels of services and to manage its assets in the best possible way. 

An Asset Levy was established in 2016 to address asset maintenance. This is critical if we are to maintain our infrastructure, which includes everything from transportation infrastructure to parks to IT infrastructure to community centres to water and sewer lines. 

Also, in 2022, an Environmental Levy was established to fund climate change mitigation and adaptation measures. The levy will help fund programs to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and also to prepare for the impacts that climate change will bring to the District.

Budget

Every year, the District proposes a budget and collects community feedback prior to Council consideration and approval.

Quarterly Reports

The quarterly financial reports provide information about the District's financial performance to the approved budget.

Annual Reports

The District was awarded the Canadian Award for Financial Reporting for its 2020 Annual Report.

Fiscal Sustainability Review

The twenty-year projections show that, in the General Fund, the District has an infrastructure gap in the long-term forecast due to insufficiently dedicated reserves for replacement of capital assets.
