Sunshine Coast Regional District asks residents about financial priorities 

The Sunshine Coast Regional District wants to hear how residents want their tax dollars spent. The SCRD has launched a survey on its website to gather input. 

“Your answers will help inform the SCRD board as they begin the financial planning process for 2026. The first meetings take place in late October, followed by round one budget meetings in December and round two budget meetings in February,” reads a news release from the SCRD. 

Anyone who completes the survey can be entered to win a gift card from a Sunshine Coast business.  

Residents have until late November to take part and the SCRD says it will host an open house to discuss priorities in-person later this year.
