COUNCIL WARD BOUNDARY and VOTING METHODS REVIEW

We are entering into the second phase of our Council review -- ward boundaries and voting methods. During Phase 1 we reviewed the ward system, council composition and full-time vs. part-time council positions. The decision to continue using a ward system was unanimous. However, how many councillors per ward, how many total and full-time vs. part-time will go back for another round of public engagement.
