Each year, Mayor and Council, the Municipal Manager, and staff work together to develop an annual budget and a Five-Year Financial Plan. The budget is developed keeping in mind near-term risks while planning for long-term financial resilience and sustainability. It pays for services provided by the District of West Vancouver, including police, fire and rescue, bylaw enforcement, parks, community centres, cultural programs, the library, capital projects, and much more.

Council will review the Preliminary Financial Plan and community input to create a budget that balances the community's needs, such as maintaining services, planning for infrastructure, and setting a reasonable tax rate.
