After a lengthy debate about the tax increase in 2010, government officials have finally set a budget leaving Calgarians with a 4.79 per cent tax increase. They claim this tax fluctuation will be similar to the one encountered in early 2009. This increase of tax dollars will be put towards various city improvements, one of which being the snow removal of more private and residential streets, not only focusing the attention on the main roads. One service that our money will not be going towards is new transit peace officers. In fact there is talk going around of eliminating the 3$ parking fee at transit stations.
