Town of High River

Holding the Line: High River's Town Council approved a 2021 municipal budget that will keep Town revenue at 2020 levels to minimize financial impacts on residents in the coming year. Council is holding the line on taxes for 2021 to help ease the financial burden on residents. We hope that a revenue neutral budget with a 0% tax rate increase will be a buffer to help residents weather this storm, said Mayor Craig Snodgrass. By pulling together we hope to see High River get back on track to achieving our goals for a bright future. Read more: https://highriver.ca/2021-approved-budget

As the Christmas season approaches, we are excited to share some Christmas Fire Safety tips from the #HighRiver Fire Department! The tip for today is to choose a safe, artificial tree that is fire resistant. Make sure the base is sturdy, so it won’t tip or fall over. Water live trees everyday to keep them fresh, so they do not become a fire hazard.
