Yes, it will. The project is funded by council taxes. The NLWA is taking loans from a public borrowing fund, and the seven boroughs will pay back those loans with money from council taxes.[1]The NLWA has not provided an estimate of how much the project will affect council taxes.[1] Source: David Cullen, Programme Director for the NLWA incinerator rebuild/expansion. He explained this in response to a question during an Edmonton ward meeting on 25/9/2019. The NLWA has not responded to emails asking for clarification on how the project is being funded (among other questions).
