The Township is seeking additional community input to help identify priorities for the $192,400 available through the Bala Community Reserve Fund.

Building on feedback received in 2025, this second survey seeks to help identify priority areas for additional enhancements in Bala, while complementing investments already planned through the Township’s 10-year Capital Plan.

Have your say by September 30, 2026, through Engage Muskoka Lakes or by written submission to the Township Municipal Office.
