Committees

Our committees represent the main areas Council is responsible for. Here’s an overview of how committees work and the issues they cover.

The Mayor and 15 Councillors work through committees to make decisions about what Council will do and how work will be funded.

The committee structure is reviewed every three years after each election.

The committee structure for the new term of Council will soon be determined.

All meetings are held on Wednesdays in the Council Chambers.

Meetings are usually held in public and Council advertises the issues it will be considering. Non–confidential reports are available to the public. If Council is talking about something confidential, the public may be excluded from that part of the meeting.
