What to Watch

• Housing Action Plan 2.0: Council will vote to adopt the new Housing Action Plan developed by the Housing Ad Hoc Committee — which explicitly prioritizes “Project 160” — and direct staff to propose supporting resources in the 2027 budget. Notable for anyone tracking housing supply in Kincardine.
• 2027 Rates and Fees: Council will approve the consolidated Rates and Fees Schedule effective January 1, 2027, with a companion by-law also up for final passage — this sets what residents and businesses will pay across municipal services next year.
• CIP grant — childcare: A $20,000 Community Improvement Plan grant (third intake) is recommended for Little Beginnings Daycare & Learning Centres, subject to a funding agreement.
• Tax write-offs: Six property tax applications totalling $3,331.83 (municipal share: $1,930.94) are recommended for approval under s.357/358 of the Municipal Act for circumstances such as demolition, fire, or property being substantially unusable.
