Medicine Hat council starts budget deliberations with focus on capital projects
Medicine Hat city staff pitched a $36-million capital budget on Tuesday that would fund dozens of major projects and contribute to balancing the municipal budget gap in the next two-year cycle.
Among the 55 proposed “New Growth Opportunities” funded by the capital and operating budgets are $9.5 million for a food waste facility, $6.3 million for the twinning of a water line and $4.9 million for a Brier Park gravity bypass for the sewer system.
