....a positive move that will maximize public participation in the decision-making process through delegations. And... more opportunities to consider issues to the fullest extent before decisions are passed. - says mayor
Richmond Hill Council will reinstate Committee of the Whole meetings, beginning on March 1.
Committee of the Whole (COW) meetings are discussion-oriented to facilitate Council’s decision-making process and the Committee forwards recommendations to Council meetings for final decision. All nine members of Council are present.
COW meetings will be held the week before a Council meeting, typically the first and third Wednesday of each month.
Council meetings are usually on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month.
Both meetings will start at 10 a.m.
Council Public Meetings will be changed to the first and third Tuesdays of the month at 7:30 p.m.

Meetings are livestreamed and can be watched on the City of Richmond Hill’s YouTube channel.
