How To Get Involved
As a citizen, you have the right to express your opinions to your elected representatives. Your ideas could make a difference when Council discusses an important issue.
As a part of being an open and accessible government, the City of Brampton encourages public participation in its decision making process.
There are several ways to get involved and participate in Committee and Council meetings:
 Attend meetings of Council and Committees. All meetings of Council and its committees are open to the public.
You can find out when meetings are scheduled and read agendas and related meeting material from the Meetings & Agenda page. - Make a written submission to Council or Committee about a matter on a meeting agenda or within the jurisdiction of the City. Address your written comments to Council or Committee and submit them to the City Clerk's Office. If your written submission is received in time, it will be published with the meeting agenda for consideration.
Look for the specific services within the City's jurisdiction under Government Responsibilities.
- Ask to speak at a Committee meeting about a matter on an agenda or within the jurisdiction of the City. Complete a delegation form and submit it to the City Clerk’s Office outlining your issue and request of Committee.
