Public Notice Policy
Section 270 (1) 4 of the Municipal Act requires municipalities to adopt and maintain policies with respect to the circumstances in which the municipality shall provide notice to the public and, if notice is to be provided, the form, manner and times notice shall be given.
County Council adopted By-law 2014-0008 being a by-law to adopt a Public Notice Policy on February 19, 2014. As part of the requirement under the Act to maintain this Policy, this policy is now being presented to the Governance Review Committee for review.
Staff presented a report along with some draft amendments to the Public Notice Policy for the Committees consideration at its meeting on March 4, 2025. The proposed amendments to the County’s Public Notice Policy have retained many of the updates done in 2014 and has been cross referenced with similar policies from comparator municipalities.
Residents are encouraged to watch the meeting, review the draft by-law and provide comments and suggestions.
