Haldimand County is inviting members of the public to attend a Community Open House to learn about – and provide input on – options for the county’s ward composition and council structure.
Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. have been facilitating the review and leading public consultation activities on behalf of the county since early 2024 with the goal of ensuring an effective and equitable system of representation ahead of the 2026 municipal election.
Following community engagement activities in spring 2024, Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. analyzed and evaluated public input and data collected to develop options for Haldimand’s ward boundary structure and council composition.
Public consultation is an essential piece of the review process and critical to ensuring an equitable electoral system. Preliminary ward configurations will be presented at the upcoming engagement sessions. Members of the public are encouraged to attend an in-person or virtual open house to learn more and provide input:
An online survey will also be made available on the project web page and advertised closer to the open house dates.
Residents who wish to learn more about the Ward Boundary Review project are encouraged to visit www.haldimandcounty.ca/wardboundaryreview and follow the county on social media for the latest updates.
Haldimand Museums is hosting its annual Holiday Market on November 14, 2024 from 2pm to 7pm at the Haldimand County Administration Building (53 Thorburn St. S, Cayuga) and adjacent Cayuga Arena – McSorley Family Hall (55 Thorburn St. S, Cayuga).
If you are a local vendor interested in participating, e-mail Geneva Gillis, museum curator or call 905-318-5932 ext. 6613.
Downtown Cayuga Street Tree Installation
Starting the week of August 5, work will begin along the north side of Talbot Street and both sides of Cayuga Street North to implement the following infrastructure upgrades:
During construction, the sidewalk and roads will remain open to pedestrian and vehicle traffic. You may experience some dust, noise and sections of the sidewalk and some roadside parking stalls will be temporarily unavailable. The County’s contractor will make efforts to reduce these impacts. We appreciate your patience and cooperation as we complete this work which will inevitably have long-lasting benefits for the downtown core of Cayuga. We anticipate that all of the work will be completed by August 30.
Project updates will be posted on the County’s website.
