How Can Residents Participate in Council Decisions?

Residents are encouraged to participate in Council decision-making and provide input on matters that affect the community. There are several ways to share your views with Council:

Ways to Participate

You may participate by:

• Attending and speaking at public hearings related to bylaws, rezoning applications, and other significant decisions

• Making a presentation at a Council meeting regarding a project, report, or recommendation before Council

• Submitting written comments or submissions on proposed bylaws, reports, or community issues

• Writing to Council about matters of concern or interest

Delegations to Council Meetings

Delegations to Council meetings are welcome and encouraged. Delegations allow individuals or groups to formally present information, ideas, or concerns directly to Council.

To ensure meetings run efficiently and that delegations are properly considered, the following procedure applies.

Delegation Application Procedure

• A written request must be received by the Village Office no later than noon on the Thursday prior to the Council meeting

• Council will accept up to two delegations per regular Council meeting

• The request must include:

  • The topic to be addressed

  • The name of the primary spokesperson

  • A brief written overview of the presentation
    
    

• The Village Office will notify the applicant of the scheduled date and time for the delegation

Please note that, as Council meetings are open to the public, all delegation requests and written submissions are considered public documents.
