The town is planning on realigning the Ward boundaries which could significantly impact our level of representation.
- They has engaged a consultant who has been holding public hearings as a basis for realigning the ward boundaries.
- The town population has grown such that there is quite a population imbalance between Wards. This is projected to get even greater over the next 15 years, with significantly more growth in Northern Oakville projected.
- This is of particular interest to Ward 2 and also Wards 1 and 3, as one option is to reduce South Oakville to two wards instead of three. Other options consider including some of the areas between the QEW and Upper Middle in with the traditional Wards south of the QEW.
