In the 2017 budget, taxes increased by 2.3 per cent, and residents paid about $107 in property taxes for an average residential home assessed at $443,000. So, taxes are gradually increasing as developments in Brampton are increasing and the cost of living here increases.</p> <p>Here’s a closer look at some of the interesting investments from the budget:</p> <ul> <li>Eight new fire trucks over three years </li> <li>A full centralized fire campus including a fire station, a safety facility, an emergency operations centre, and a brand new headquarters</li> <li>Thirty-one new conventional Brampton Transit buses and 34 new Zum buses over three years</li> <li>A total of $150 million towards the Ryerson-Sheridan university that’s taking shape in Brampton, including a joint-use centre with a new library</li> <li>Revitalizing recreational facilities in Bramalea</li> <li>Increase STEM (engineering and robotics) recreational programming</li> </ul> <p>The Etobicoke Creek Riverwalk is also still in the works, as well as sanitary and watermain improvements in and around downtown Brampton as part of the streetscaping project.</p> <p>What’s more — according to the City, the “final instalment of the Hospital Levy will be reflected in the 2018 property tax bill. Due to investment earnings on previous amounts collected, taxpayers will see a lesser amount than originally planned.”</p> <p>The recommended operating budget for the City for 2018 is $678 million, up from <a href="http://www.brampton.ca/EN/City-Hall/budget/2017%20Budget/2017-2019%20Approved%20Business%20Plan%20and%20Budget.pdf" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">last year’s
