The committees available include:
- Statutory committees: accessibility; appeals; and committee of adjustment

If you’re looking to volunteer with the town on a more informal basis or for a specific event, check out Engaged EG, a one-stop shop for volunteers. The town is hosting volunteer orientation nights on March 18 and April 24.
