Accountability and Transparency

In 2007, the Municipal Act (the 'Act') was amended to provide municipalities with greater autonomy but also to mandate the implementation of various accountability and transparency measures.  

We are committed to conducting business in an open, transparent and accountable manner, and have embedded these principles within our various policies, practices and procedures.  We make every effort to provide you and the community with as much information as possible.  If you cannot find what you are looking for, please contact us.
