Come learn with us. Next Monday starting at 8 a.m. and running until sometime in the afternoon, our Council will be getting a sizeable helping of onboarding from District of West Vancouver officials. As part of our effort for greater accessibility, the sessions are open to the public at Municipal Hall in Council Chambers and online at our youtube.com/@WestVanDistrict channel or where you usually can find our Council proceedings online at westvancouver.ca. The presentations, in order: planning, development and environment services; parks, culture and community services; North Shore emergency management; human resources and payroll. Then a lunch break, on to finance and corporate services; West Vancouver Memorial Library; engineering and transportation services; communications, Indigenous and community relationships; Fire and Rescue Services. Small note: the public isn't able to ask questions at these sessions. But if there's anything you hear that you'd like clarified later, you can email us to get answers. I'm at [email protected].
