Balance Arlen Hill's Budget
Arlen Hill's Budget Consultation is now closed.
Arlen Hill is now formally deciding its budget priorities. We asked want you, the citizens of Arlen Hill, to help us make that decision by using this simulator to tell us about what services are most important to you. The results of this consultation were read at the AGM in November before councillors commenced voting on the following years budget.
This simulator helps to illustrate how Arlen Hill’s budget is currently allocated, and how changing the budget could affect the lives of people in Arlen Hill.
We would like you to use it to tell us how you would allocate Arlen Hill's money, and which services are most important to you.
In response to the results from the Arlen Hill Budget Simulator in 2012, we:
- invested in adult education programs, re-training workers from Arlen Hill's shrinking industrial sector into the growing service sector
- found savings of 15% in Arlen Hill's gardening operations
- kept tax rates static against inflation
