Calgary Police Service Budget and Priorities

Budget Information Report
We appreciate that the Calgary Police Service budget is largely funded through the taxes paid by hard-working Calgarians. The responsibility to ensure we are operating as efficiently and effectively as possible is not one that we take lightly. This report from the Calgary Police Commission and the Calgary Police Service is part of our commitment to be as transparent as possible with the funds we are provided through the City of Calgary and other government grants and fine revenue.

Safer Mobility Plan
The Safer Mobility Plan for 2024-2028 is the first unified plan between the Calgary Police Service and the City of Calgary. These two organizations are joining forces as core partners working towards safer mobility and reducing harm on our roadways.
The plan is built on past successes and principles of continuous improvement, as we aim to not only capture the momentum of our programs and amplify their impact, but also identify gaps and develop new programs and strategies to address them. The plan will also rely on support through our partnerships and collaboration with other safety partners, communities, and everyone moving around our city.
