Mayor Amy Martin has tabled the draft 2026–2035 Levy Capital Plan, setting out nearly a decade of strategic infrastructure investment to guide the county’s growth and financial sustainability.
The plan outlines $69.7 million in capital spending for 2026 and a forecasted $681 million investment through 2035.
Developed collaboratively by county staff without mayoral amendments, the plan fulfills Martin’s legislative responsibility under Ontario’s Municipal Act.
According to the draft, 84 percent of capital spending is earmarked for renewal projects — improving the condition and reliability of roads, facilities, fleets, parks, and stormwater systems.
The county also plans to reduce reliance on debt financing, marking a more fiscally responsible approach compared to previous years.
Council will convene as the Budget Committee on November 20 to deliberate on proposed amendments before the plan is finalized.

The document serves as a cornerstone of Norfolk’s financial roadmap — ensuring that every dollar spent strengthens core infrastructure, enhances service delivery, and prepares the community for future growth.
