Calgary’s 2027–2030 Municipal Budget Campaign
The Calgary Alliance for the Common Good is bringing community voices into decisions that will shape our city’s future. Our municipal budget campaign focuses on affordable housing, community-based mental health supports, and strong public services that make Calgary more affordable, accessible, and inclusive.
In November 2026, Calgary City Council will consider the City’s 2027–2030 Business Plans and Budgets. This four-year plan will guide investments in the services, supports, and infrastructure our communities rely on every day.
Everyone deserves a safe, affordable place to call home, support when they are struggling, and public services that meet their needs. Together, we can advocate for a city budget that reflects our shared priorities and serves the common good.
