Council consists of a Mayor and four Councillors who were elected for a four-year term in October 2018. The community has the opportunity to provide input to Council on various issues such as: budgets, taxes, development and community needs. Council’s powers are exercised through the adoption of resolutions or bylaws or by setting policy.
Council meetings are scheduled for the second and fourth Monday of each month at 6:30 pm at the Columbia Discovery Centre at 8866 Grainger Road. Meetings are open to the public. Agendas are posted Thursdays prior to the meetings.
The public can address Council at these meetings during the public question period. If major items are to be discussed, arrangements should be made, in writing, using the Delegation Request Form prior to noon on the Wednesday before the meeting in order for the item to be included on the Council agenda. The Council Meeting Schedule can be found in Meeting Calendar section of the website.
