During the past two weeks, the City of Windsor says that 3,647 residents participated in five telephone town hall meetings.

With the COVID-19 limiting the opportunity for in-person gatherings, the annual ward meetings were re-imagined with support from Hamilton-based Prime Contact Group.

Windsorites with a landline were automatically dialled, while mobile-only ward residents were required to pre-register to be able to participate in the virtual sessions.

Mayor Dilkens and each of Windsor’s 10 council members were able to provide brief updates regarding neighbourhood-specific projects and activities.

Residents were able to ask dozens of questions, and interactive surveys helped gather information.

All recordings from the October 2020 virtual ward meetings are available on the City of Windsor’s YouTube channel.
