Standing Committees – Starting the week of July 18

What is a Standing Committee?

Standing committees have distinct mandates in areas of public service delivery and corporate operations, including: monitoring current program delivery, service levels and emerging issues; recommending policy and program changes. Members of the public may arrange to speak or send in comments to these committees. Note that Committees make recommendations to City Council for a final decision.
