We Want Your Thoughts-Corporate Communication Plan Survey

The Municipality is asking residents and community stakeholders to complete a short survey to help us prepare a corporate communication strategy. The objective of the Municipality’s communication strategy is to provide corporate direction for the circulation of information and to ensure that the following goals are met:

  • That the community, councillors and staff are informed of all appropriate decisions, policies, programs, events and issues in a timely, accurate and consistent manner;
  • That emerging municipal government media stories and issues are dealt with and responded to in a timely, accurate and appropriate manner;
  • That the professional image of council and the corporation is maintained and enhanced by the production of quality corporate documents and messages

The survey will take approximately 10 minutes to complete. The survey will be open for responses until March 31. 2010.  All responses will be confidential. Take the survey now.  Thank you for particpating. We value your opinion.

Welcome to the Municipality of Leamington

Named the best place to live in Canada by MoneySense Magazine. Imagine a place where rare plants and species thrive.  Where the land is so rich it produces the most diverse range of crops in Canada. A place where naturalists flock to witness the impressive migration of birds and butterflies.  A community where retirement living is at its best. A place where breathtaking sunsets, secluded beaches, after supper sails and friendly faces are a way of life.  Imagine Leamington.
