Advisory Committees 

Advisory Committees in the Municipality of Meaford include members of Council and community volunteers. These committees provide advice and recommendations to Council but do not have decision-making authority.

Recommendations from Advisory Committees are submitted to the Committee of the Whole through a formal Committee Report. Topics may be brought directly to an Advisory Committee or referred by Council for further review and input.
