Public Feedback for Budget Deliberations

Help Shape Clearwater County’s 2026 Budget

From December 10-12, 2025, Council will be reviewing the proposed 2026 Budget, and your input matters. Before the budget is finalized, we’d like to hear what you think about the priorities and projects planned for the year ahead.

Take a few minutes to complete our short survey quiz (scroll to the bottom of the webpage or click here to open in a new window) for a chance to win a prize.

Your feedback helps guide Council’s decisions and ensure the budget reflects community needs.

Residents can watch the livestream on Clearwater County's YouTube channel and additional meeting information is available on the Council Meeting portal page. Also view the meeting agenda and draft 2026 Operational & Capital Budget: (link coming soon)

How will public input be used?

Public input received during budget deliberations and online will be:

  • presented to Council for consideration for their budget deliberations;
  • made public online; and
  • will help set the stage for future public engagement opportunities.
