How does the municipal decision‑making process unfold? This fact sheet outlines the main steps—from the emergence of an issue to the implementation of the decision adopted by the municipal council—and the roles played by both the council and the administration.
It also provides guidance on when, how, and with whom public health organizations can engage to take part in the process and work toward the adoption of municipal decisions that promote wellbeing and health.
It is the third fact sheet in a collection on municipal governance in Canada that aims to explain municipal dynamics and processes in order to guide public health organizations in their collaborative efforts with municipalities.
