Council

The Municipality of Central Elgin is governed by a seven-member elected Council, consisting of a Mayor and Deputy Mayor elected at large, and five ward councillors, each representing one of Central Elgin’s wards.

Council makes decisions on behalf of the Municipality by approving by-laws and policies, and by establishing strategic plans, programs, and services. Its role is to represent the public, act in the best interests of the community, and maintain the Municipality’s financial integrity.

Council also ensures that administrative policies, practices, and procedures are in place to implement its decisions and to promote accountability and transparency in municipal operations.

Members of Council represent the Municipality at community events throughout the year and serve on various boards and committees to provide guidance and oversight on municipal matters. These boards and committees help shape the future of the community by offering advice, feedback, and recommendations on a range of issues.
