ABSTRACT
The Municipal Funding Study examines 20+ key performance indicators to understand the role external funding sources such as grants and debt play in the financial administration of Ontario municipalities. Using 10 years of publicly available data filed through the Financial Information Returns of all 444 municipalities, information is provided for the subject municipality to contextualize performance against comparators for indicators such as grants per household, annual repayment limit, and trend in total capital spending. A macro-economic update is provided to summarize factors influencing the funding environment. Finally, recent funding opportunities are highlighted and analysis is provided on certain misalignments between the purpose of grants made available by senior governments and the need of municipalities.
