Meeting Agendas & Minutes
County Council utilizes a standing committee structure to facilitate the decision making process. Each standing committee meets regularly and the minutes of each committee then go forward to County Council for adoption. The standing committees are:
- Community Development & Tourism
- General Government Services
- Infrastructure & Environmental Services
- Health & Human Services
Each Councillor is appointed to sit on two of the standing committees. Committee membership is determined each year in December. The Warden sits on all committees.
The County of Dufferin also has four advisory committees made up of members of the public:
- Joint Accessibility Advisory Committee with the Town of Orangeville - visit the Town of Orangeville website for more information
