“I would like to congratulate staff and all of our partners for their tremendous efforts to deliver the important services that make Wellington North a wonderful community to be a part of. As a Council, we look forward to working towards the priorities identified as part of our new Strategic Plan” said Mayor Andy Lennox in a news release.
In October 2023, Council approved the 2024 Strategic Plan, which through extensive consultation between Council, community, and Township staff, identified the primary goal of the Township: building a safe, sustainable, and welcoming community.
The township says the 2023 Year in Review was developed to share some of the activities that have taken place in the last year, as well as to increase the level of accountability and transparency with the public.
