Financial Forecasting Survey

We want to hear from you! 

The Township of Southgate is currently working on the budget for the year 2026 and we'd like to know more about the priorities and preferences of you our residents, and this survey is your opportunity to have a say!

This survey focuses on services funded through your local municipal taxes (i.e., does not include federal, provincial or education taxes). 

By taking part in this survey, you’ll help us understand how well municipal services are understood overall, how they are valued, and which ones are a priority for the people who live here. 

There’s also plenty of opportunities to provide comments, so take a few minutes and tell us what you think. 

The survey will take approximately 5 minutes to complete depending on your answers. Feedback from the survey will be shared with Township of Southgate Council, but no personal or identifying information will be collected nor shared.
