Carberry, Manitoba, residents can now dig into how their property tax dollars are being used this year. The Town of Carberry has posted its 2026 Financial Plan on its website, giving everyone a chance to review the numbers and understand where money is coming from and going between January 1 and December 31.

The plan shows the town expects to bring in $3,039,258 in revenue, with a municipal tax levy of $2,894,303.48. That tax ask is down from last year, when the plan called for $3,113,919.17. The amount collected for school taxes is also dropping, from $944,726 in 2025 to $860,000 in 2026.

Municipalities in Manitoba are required to have their financial plans adopted and sent to the province by May 15 each year, a deadline Carberry met. The document is now available for anyone to read on the Town of Carberry financial reports page.

The financial plan lays out how the town divides spending across everyday services, including general government, protective services, transportation, environmental health, recreation, and economic development. Having the plan online lets residents see firsthand how council is managing community dollars.
