Stay Connected

The City is committed to establishing open two-way communication with residents and businesses, and encourages you to participate in the public process by getting involved and offering feedback on community issues.

The City is experiencing considerable growth and an exciting period of development. Your input is important to the planning and design process and we look forward to hearing your views. At the same time, the City is working to keep you up-to-date on various community projects and initiatives.

Here are the many ways you can stay connected with the City:

CityDIRECT
The City offers residents and businesses a new and convenient way to receive information about City projects, initiatives and events. CityDIRECT is a free online service that delivers important City news and information directly to your inbox. Subscribers simply select from a list of topics and when information is updated on the City website, an automated email alert appears.

Council Meetings
Find out what the City is doing to enhance your community. View the latest Council meeting schedule, agenda and reports, then attend a weekly meeting or view a live web broadcast of the meeting from the comfort of your own home. If you miss a broadcast or meeting, you can access minutes and video clips online.

Public Hearings & Town Hall Meetings
Do you have an idea or concern about an issue that may affect your community, property or interests? Attend a monthly public hearing or special town hall meeting to present your comments and views on issues such as bylaw changes, rezoning, and development.

Workshops & Open Houses
Be a part of the planning and design process for major City initiatives. Attend a public workshop and/or open house to provide your input.
