Public Hearings
A public hearing is a formal meeting where members of the public are provided the opportunity to provide feedback on a proposed bylaw or other matter of public interest. Public Hearings are held at 5:30 PM both in Council chambers and electronically at a regular or special meetings of council. To see any upcoming hearings, please visit our Municipal Calendar.
Public Hearings are held prior to second reading of a bylaw or before a resolution of Council to allow for public feedback to be taken into consideration before a decision of Council is made.
A Public Hearing is held when required by the Municipal Government Act or some other enactment, or when Council determines that public feedback is otherwise required. All Public Hearings are held in accordance with Part 7 of the Municipal Government Act and the Town of Drumheller Council and Committee Procedure Bylaw.
