Official Edmonton Police Commission budget-variance report. Authoritative source for EPS's 2024 provincial grant revenue. Figures extracted via pdftotext (all in $000s = thousands CAD; annual budget vs forecast columns).

Provincial Grants — full-year 2024 (verbatim, Note 3)¶

"Provincial Grants include the Policing Support Grant, the 50 New Police Officers Grant, the E911 Grant, Victim Services Grant, and Drug Impairment Grant." Annual figures (from the variance table, rightmost annual columns): - Provincial Grants — Annual Budget $47,727K ($47.7M); Forecast $48,862K ($48.9M) (+$1,135K, +2.4%)

Cross-checked against reporting: "The Edmonton Police Service received $45.3 million in provincial grant funding in 2024, which represented 8.1% of the total operating budget of $560.1 million." (The $45.3M vs $47.7M difference reflects budget-vs-actual and which grant lines are counted.)

Traffic Safety Act (TSA) fine revenue — full-year 2024 (verbatim, Note 1)¶

"Revenue generated by officer issued tickets under the Traffic Safety Act." - TSA Fines — Annual Budget $10,262K ($10.3M); Forecast $7,299K ($7.3M) (-$2,963K, -28.9%, "lower-than-expected number of tickets issued")

Reserve transfers 2024¶

Transfer from Reserve (OTS/FSR): $0 in 2024. "In 2024, funding for HSOC is through tax levy funding, and no additional transfers from the reserve are anticipated." (Note the $22.3M photo-radar reserve transfer that appeared in the 2022 funding formula is NOT showing as an EPS operating-revenue line here — confirming the photo-radar-to-EPS pipeline had shifted by 2024.)

Secondments revenue (relevant to ALERT/ASIRT)¶

Secondments — Annual Budget $15,532K; Forecast $16,133K. This is reimbursement for EPS officers seconded to ALERT/ASIRT etc.

Budget trajectory (from Councillor Janz, michaeljanz.ca/policefunding2024)¶

EPS operating budget grew from $378 million (2019) to $475 million (2026).
