 A Budget for today's priorities and tomorrow's opportunities

Explore the Budget in detail

This is a Budget for today’s priorities and tomorrow’s opportunities. It’s a Budget that is responsible, sustainable and balanced, recognising both the cost-of-living pressures our community is facing and the future we are building. It reflects our responsibility not only to meet the needs of today, but also to ensure we remain financially strong and capable of delivering for our community into the future.

The $728 million Budget will allow us to maintain and upgrade existing facilities, deliver essential services and continue investing in critical infrastructure across our Region for a brighter future. Over the past year we’ve secured important reforms and funding that are already helping to ease pressure on local households and will continue to do so for years to come. From changes to the waste levy to stronger investment in public transport from the State Government, these are real savings and real improvements for Toowoomba Region ratepayers.

We know there is more to do and we are not stepping back. We will continue to advocate strongly for the infrastructure our Region needs, whether that’s roads, freight or essential services.
