Council Meetings

Public Input at Council Meetings

There are three ways that residents can provide input to the Municipal Council at Council Meetings: 

1.       By applying to appear as a delegation to Council

Residents may appear as a delegation before Council to make a presentation, submit a request for action, register a complaint, or provide updates or information to Council about issues, projects, or programs.

• A written application must be received by the Administration Department by noon on the Wednesday prior to the Council meeting. If it is received after this time, arrangements will be made to have your delegation request presented at the next available meeting.
  
• Presentations are limited to five minutes, unless a longer period is agreed to by resolution of Council.

• Each individual address will be limited to two minutes.

3.       By speaking during the Public Question and Comment period
