Council composition and ward boundary review

We’re reviewing Guelph’s Council composition and ward boundaries to understand if our wards and Council representation is effective, equitable and an accurate reflection of who lives here.

This review will have a lasting impact on how you’re represented at the municipal level, now and into the future.

We need your help to answer some big questions about how your represented:

•Is our Council the right size?

•Should we have full time or part time councillors?

•Should councillors be elected in a ward system, at-large or a combination of both?

•Do we need to redraw our ward boundaries so each ward is represented equally?
