Town Hall open to public by appointment only - what you need to know
Town Hall is now open to the public by appointment only, following Public Health guidelines, safety standards, and best practices. All entries into Town Hall will be via the lower level doors adjacent to the Peace Park parking lot.
When visiting Town facilities, the public will be asked to submit to a standardized screening test including having their temperature taken. Face coverings, when unable to physically distance, are required.
Questions the public will be asked are:
Before reopening, a variety of pre-return checks, tasks, and assessments were completed to ensure a healthy and safe environment for everyone, including preparing the building with floor stickers for appropriate distancing, preparing staff and their workspaces, controlling access to buildings through screening, reducing touchpoints, and increasing cleaning.
All meeting rooms will be wiped down and cleaned after each meeting and individual offices will not be used for meetings. Welcoming guests in this manner ensures the health and safety of Town staff and the public. Appointments cannot be made for water or tax payments. Residents who wish to make water or tax payments are encouraged to sign up for preauthorized payments or can do so via online or in-person banking; cheques can also be dropped off at the Town Hall drop box outside the lower level doors.
