Policies

Council-approved policies guide how the Village of Borden carries out its operations and decision-making. Policies support transparency, consistency, and accountability in municipal administration, and help ensure that services are delivered in a fair and effective manner.

Policies complement bylaws by providing clear direction on administrative practices, procedures, and standards used by Council, staff, and committees.
