Cut Taxes By 20%
Airdrie deserves a fresh start.
Over the past few years, Council has faced difficult choices and worked hard to keep tax increases manageable.
They’ve tried to limit the rate of increase.
But, while a few percent above inflation each year might not sound like much, over time, it adds up to quite a sizeable increase.
The slow but steady increase has left many residents feeling the strain, and it’s clear now that something needs to change.
We think it’s time to take bold action to set Airdrie up for success.
That’s why we’re calling for an immediate 20% cut in property taxes.
This isn’t about cutting services.
Essential services like safe streets, reliable water, clean neighbourhoods, and efficient transit can be delivered more effectively and affordably by cutting unnecessary bureaucracy, reducing redundant management layers, and reining in expensive consulting contracts.
A lower tax burden would provide relief to families and businesses while giving City Hall the chance to recalibrate its priorities.
A 20% tax cut isn’t just a statement - it’s a solution.
The time for bold reform is now.
We need to refocus on what really matters and reset the city’s financial trajectory.
This is a chance to embrace a fresh start - one where better services come at a lower cost, and every dollar works harder for residents.
Let’s make the most of this opportunity to demand better.
Join us in calling for bold reform and a return to a sustainable starting point.
