When it comes to the 10-year unfunded capital budget, Moose Jaw has $218.86 million in infrastructure deficit.

“It’s a very significant deficit,” said Brian Acker, director of financial services. “At some point municipalities like Moose Jaw will have to consider something like an infrastructure levy … and provide funding for some of this unfunded capital works.”
