Community Works Fund (Formerly Gas Tax)

Community Works Fund (Formerly Gas Tax) is administered by the Union of BC Municipalities and provides predictable, long-term and stable funding to local governments for investment in infrastructure and capacity building projects. The original name of the fund reflects its origins from revenues raised by the federal gasoline excise tax. More information is available here.
