Regional Government Review

Provincial Review of Regional Governments Across Ontario

The provincial government announced on Jan. 15, 2019, that they have undertaken a process to review regional governments across the province. 

The purpose of the review is to ensure that regional governments (including the Niagara Region) and member municipalities (including Lincoln) across Ontario are working effectively and efficiently, and continue to provide the essential services that our communities rely on.

In Spring 2019, the Province encouraged local input about how regional governments and member municipalities can improve governance, decision-making, and delivery of vital services. 

The Province is currently reviewing input and recommendations are expected late fall 2019.
