As part of our ongoing commitment to transparency, community engagement and efficiency in governance, I would like to share forthcoming changes to the Town’s Council and Committee meeting structure.
The council and committee structure is a framework that helps organize and facilitate decision making. Currently, General Committee meets twice per month, and Public Planning and Council each have one meeting per month. Moving forward, General Committee will be dissolved, and Committee of the Whole introduced. Committee of the Whole will meet once per month, and Public Planning Meetings and Council Meetings will continue once per month.
This change will not impact the number of agenda items or create a backlog but will free up one Tuesday per month to be used as needed to discuss planning matters, Council education sessions, special council meetings or closed session matters as required.
Staff have done an incredible job with agenda management, bringing us to this point where we can now make these changes that will lead to a more efficient and effective use of staff’s, councils, and residents’ time for the betterment of our community.
The opportunities for public participation remain unchanged. Your involvement is crucial in shaping the future of our community. We encourage you to stay informed, participate actively, and help us build a stronger and more vibrant community together. #LEADERSHIPTHATGETSTHNIGSDONE
