The Township of Rideau Lakes is excited to welcome all community members to participate in conversations about the future for the Village of Elgin.
In order to gather information about how residents and stakeholders want to see their community in the next ten to fifteen years, “Community Visioning” Sessions will be held, and people are encouraged to complete a short survey. This is an opportunity to provide a positive contribution to the vision for Elgin, to determine what is desired; and the specifics of how you get there will come later! https://www.elginvillagevision.com/
Take the Survey:
