    Agendas and minutes

    Minutes are posted on the council page back to July 2024, and the agenda for the October 6, 2026 meeting is posted. Several minutes files (for example December 9, 2025 and January 6, 2026) are pictures of pages with no readable text, so we could not read them. Source

    Budgets posted online

    The finance page links one budget, the 2026 final budget. Every page of that PDF is a picture with no readable text, so we could not read it, and neither could a screen reader. We did not find earlier budgets. Source

How to raise a concern

From the gentlest step to the most serious. Start at the top.

  1. Integrity Commissioners

    The Township's council page says it has three appointed Integrity Commissioners, who do not receive annual retainers and are hired by the matter. We did not find any of their reports on the council page.

  2. Registry of declarations of pecuniary interest

    The Township's page on declarations says the Township keeps a public registry. We did not find the registry itself online.
