Council of the Village of Fundy Albert meets twice each month
You’re invited to attend
Regular Village Council Meetings and Committee of the Whole Meetings, held on the first and third Tuesday of each month, are open to the public. Find our 2024 Council meeting dates below, and plan to join us.
Regular Village Council Meetings
The Regular monthly meetings occur on the first Tuesday of the month with varying start times. The Regular meeting is a public meeting and is an opportunity for Village Council to conduct their business.
Committee of the Whole
Committee of the Whole meetings take place on the third Tuesday of each month with a 4:30 p.m. start time.
These are public meetings, and serve as an opportunity for Council to receive information on, and discuss various subjects. It is often the first opportunity for an item or issue to be presented to Council and therefore, decisions are not made at this meeting.
This allows time for Councilors to reflect on the information and/or seek further information as necessary in order to assist in their decision making at a later date, which normally occurs during the Regular Monthly Council meetings. Committee of the Whole Meetings are also open to the public to make brief presentations to Council.
Please register with the Clerk in advance at cao@fundyalbert.ca.
