Because official minutes have not yet been released for any of the meetings, outcomes and votes remain unavailable.

County Council

The County Council meeting on June 23 featured items forwarded from the Committee of the Whole, along with several direct reports. On the agenda were amendments to two draft plans of subdivision — 34T‑SO2502 and 34T‑SO2503 — and a review of the 2025 audited financial statements and the 2026 annual report. Council also had before it a new procedural by‑law (No. 26‑27) and planned to move into closed session for discussions on bargaining mandates and home staffing.
