Consultation has concluded

Every municipality in Ontario must have a procedural by-law. The procedural by-law governs the way that Council and board/committee meetings are run. The by-law includes rules for how municipal meetings are called, time, date & location of meetings, the conduct of members, and how meetings proceed. The by-law also guides public participation with Council and the way the municipality communicates about meetings.

The County is considering updating its current procedural by-law to ensure it best supports the good governance of the municipality and aligns with provincial legislation.

The County is requesting feedback on public participation in meetings and the decision-making process.

  • CLOSED: This survey has concluded.

    The procedural bylaw is a set structure that guides processes for Council and committee meetings to carry out the business of the County. Some of the things the bylaw outlines include: how Council members cast their votes, how late Council meetings can run, conduct for Council, how residents delegate and interact with Council and how public meetings are communicated to residents.
