Council meetings

Council meetings are generally held on the fourth Monday of each month (except in December).

Council meetings include public question time which allows the community to ask questions to Councillors about issues of concern.

Strategic Planning Committee meetings

The Strategic Planning Committee (SPC) is a Special Committee made up of Councillors.

The Committee meets 10 times each year generally on the second Monday of each month.

The Strategic Planning Committee can discuss a range of issues. The meeting has a more casual structure so allows for discussion on strategic matters.

Additional meetings of Council

Sometimes an additional Council meeting is required in addition to those scheduled. These dates are advertised on Council's website.
