I was honoured on behalf of Minister of #MunicipalAffairs Steve Clark to join #MPAdamVaughan to announce $9.6 million for #affordablehousing in #OwenSound at Odawa Heights. Mayor Ian Boddy, Warden Paul McQueen, Chair Ruth Lovell Stanners, MP Alex Ruff billwalkermpp.com/news_item.php?…

It's official.......the new Markdale Foodland is now OPEN! Members of Council and staff were in attendance for the official opening.

Every little bit helps. While we’re shut down, we want to ensure our community has everything necessary to help protect themselves from COVID-19. We donated 17,000 disposable gloves and hand sanitizer from several of our departments to the Collingwood General Marine Hospital

The Transportation and Environmental Services Department will be lifting the reduced load restrictions effective Friday May 1, 2020. Any updates concerning the condition of the Municipal road network will be posted to the website. Herb Lemon, TES Director 519-986-1216; ext. 225
