The Town of Erin has seen a strong financial start to 2026.
The town’s first quarter financial report showed a surplus of $301,038, a sign of measures being taken by staff and council to protect municipal services and long term financial health are bearing fruit.
Last year the town recorded a deficit mainly driven by an unusually severe winter, strategic investments in parks and recreation staffing to expand programming and a sudden and steep decline in new home construction revenues.
Mayor Michael Dehn says the early results for 2026 give them confidence that the approach protects core services, supports community priorities and keeps Erin on a sustainable fiscal path.
