Description
In 2020-21, the Government of Saskatchewan will distribute $ 278 million to municipalities in Municipal Revenue Sharing. This is the equivalent of .75 of one full point of Provincial Sales Tax (from 2018-19 Public Accounts).
For 2020-21, $ 133.208 million or 47.9 per cent is allocated to the cities, $ 45.051 million or 16.2 per cent to towns, villages and resort villages, $ 79.257 million or 28.5 per cent to rural municipalities, and $ 20.579 million or 7.4 per cent to northern communities. This level of commitment aligns with the Government of Saskatchewan's promise to develop a long-term revenue sharing plan with the municipal sector that is linked to the performance of the province's economy.
