Budget and Priorities

Calgary Police Service Budget and Priorities

Our total budget is set by Calgary City Council and how we spend it is approved by the Calgary Police Commission. We set our priorities based on what we hear from Calgarians and the crime trends we see as posing a risk to the public. 

  • Our Strategy

    Our Strategy is the long-range, high-level organizational strategy maps out Our Vision, Our Mission, Our Values, Our Approach and Our Goals, and will guide the Service over the next five-to-ten years.

    Our Mission

    As One Team we build community safety & well-being through engagement, education, prevention, investigation, and enforcement.

    Our Vision

    - Calgary is the safest major city in Canada

    - We are connected with, committed to, and representative of, all our communities

    - We are police leaders in equity, diversity & inclusion

    - We are the police employer of choice in Canada

  • 2024 Annual Policing Plan

    We are proud to present our 2024 Annual Policing Plan; a document to guide the Calgary Police Service to ensure ours is among the safest major cities in Canada.

  • 2022 Annual Report

    We are pleased to share out 2022 Annual Report with the public. This report provides insight into the important public safety work, transformation initiatives and organizational updates that the CPS led in 2022.

  • Partnership Roadmap

    The partnership and community engagement strategy falls under the Bureau of Service and Community Support. The Bureau is responsible for much of our Service’s strategic planning, research, and analysis that guides our direction as an organization. This work is informed through internal and external assessments of challenges and opportunities in contemporary policing.

Our overall budget and priorities are outlined in The City of Calgary’s 2023-2026 One Calgary Service Plan and Budget, and our Service Action Plan outlines how we are going to meet those priorities. 

Quarterly Service Plan Accountability Reports

These quarterly reports show our progress towards the goals set for us by City Council and the Calgary Police Commission: 

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.  


Executive Leadership Expense Reports

As part of our commitment to be an open, transparent and accountable organization, we release these reports twice per year in the spring and fall. They include line item details, including business travel, meals and hosting, and employee recognition for the Chief of Police and the four Deputy Chiefs.

Traffic Safety Plan

We are committed to the prevention of crime and enforcement of laws within the community, which includes traffic safety. Serious injury or death of pedestrians or motorists can be reduced through education, targeted enforcement at high-collision locations, and collaboration with the City of Calgary on planning roadways.

The CPS Interim Traffic Safety Plan (2022-2023) captures our organizational goals and overall plan related to traffic safety, with the idea to align with the City of Calgary for a jointly published plan for our 2024-2026 Traffic Safety/Safer Mobility Plan.
