Ordinary Council meetings

Council meetings are forums where Councillors discuss issues and recommendations on a wide range of issues that guide Council's actions. The meetings provide residents with an opportunity to ask questions of Councillors and to raise issues for Council to consider in its decision-making process.

Meetings are livestreamed and may be accessed from this website. Attendance at the meetings will be in line with the current COVID-19 health restrictions.

Persons wishing to observe the meeting in person, submit a public question or make a submission to an agenda item, are required to register by 12pm on the day of the meeting. See Public Questions, Submissions and Registrations page for more information.
