When Finance staff were developing the funding strategy for the 2025 Capital Budget, BFF
dollars were introduced to reduce the funding challenges for 2025 and capital forecast. During
the budget development stage, finance staff analyzed the City’s current housing target activity
in comparison to the Provincial housing target. Based on this analysis, finance staff introduced
the use of BFF dollars for the 2025 Capital Budget. This funding strategy was explained in the
2025 Financial Housekeeping Report (FIN 02-25). The Province has not yet announced the
City's BFF allocation, but it's expected in the coming weeks with the announcement of 2024
BFF grant funding recipients.
