With every new term of Council, we set priorities and actions required to deliver on issues that matter to you. With Halton expected to grow from 624,000 to 1.1 million residents by the year 2051, the priorities captured in the 2023-2026 Strategic Business Plan must reflect the needs of our community.

From clean drinking water to resilient infrastructure, public health programs, financial assistance and family supports, Regional programs and services contribute to a high quality of life in Halton. The Plan will guide our work to enhance these critical programs, services and infrastructure over the next four years.

The Region has prepared a Consultation Document to seek input from the public as we work together to develop the 2023-2026 Plan. It outlines our four proposed themes, each with proposed goals, actions and measures.

Now, we want to hear from you! Between March 23 and May 4, 2023, we are asking residents, businesses and stakeholders, as well as Indigenous People, Communities and First Nations to participate in consultation activities and provide feedback on our Consultation Document.

Take the survey.  The survey is open until May 4, 2023.
