Council composition review


Oxford County Council is undertaking a council composition review. This process looks at:

  • the number of members on Council;
  • election of the County Warden; and
  • how voting is carried out during Council meetings.

To have your say:

  • fill out the survey below;
  • write your feedback in the "Your comments" section; or
  • send an email directly to the County Clerk at clerksoffice@oxfordcounty.ca.

To speak at the public meeting on July 8, send an email to the County Clerk by July 1, 2020.

The deadline to comment online is August 1, 2020. Your feedback will be used to prepare a report and recommendations from the County Clerk to County Council, and will also be shared with area municipal councils as they prepare their final comments. The final Oxford County Council report will be submitted to the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing.

The review was first before County Council on March 11 and was then sent to Oxford's eight area municipalities for their comments and input. You can read their feedback in the June 10 Council report.

Oxford County is required by legislation to review its council composition and reach decisions by December 1, 2020. Any changes would take effect at the beginning of the 2023-2027 Council term.
