Brainstorming solutions to high property taxes
Lower taxes. Smarter spending. Stronger Thorold. A plan that controls costs today while widening the tax base for tomorrow.
01
Reduce Wasteful Spending
- Conduct regular, published spending reviews.
- Eliminate duplicate programs and unnecessary administrative costs.
02
Grow the Tax Base
- Attract new businesses and responsible development.
- More commercial tax revenue helps reduce the burden on homeowners.
03
Invest in Smarter Infrastructure
- Use provincial and federal grants wherever they are available.
- Prioritize preventative maintenance to avoid costly emergency repairs.
Invest in today, inspire tomorrow
After-school programs & STEM
Every child has potential. After-school programs and STEM education unlock curiosity, build confidence and prepare our youth for the future.
While education is a provincial responsibility, the City of Thorold can support community partnerships, recreation, after-school programs and youth initiatives that create opportunities for our kids to learn, grow and thrive.

Your neighbour. Your voice. Your future.
01
Fiscal Responsibility
Every dollar collected should work for you, and every decision should be explained in plain language.
02
Stronger Community
Smart decisions today build a better tomorrow for the neighbours who live here now and those still arriving.
03
Better Quality of Life
Invest in what matters most to our families: parks, recreation, safety and reliable city services.
04
Transparency & Accountability
Open, honest and answerable to you — with council decisions shared before they are made, not after.
