Stormwater management ensures that our stormwater system protects Oakville residents while preserving our natural environment. As part of the town's long-term vision for stormwater management, we are developing a StormwaterMaster Plan to assess what has been done--what still needs to be done--and priorities for the future. Be part of developing the plan and enhancing the quality of life for everyone in Oakville! Get involved so we're all rain ready! Phase 2 of our plan is currently underway which aims to assess the town's existing stormwater management network and document its ability to respond to continued land use changes (e.g. infill development, land redevelopment) and climate change (e.g. increased rainfall frequency and intensity). We anticipate to complete our Phase 2 work this year. Our Environmental Assessment Study (EA) will identify stormwater management system vulnerabilities that may require improvements as well as the adoption of new/revised policies, bylaws, and/or standards to ensure that the town's system continues to operate effectively for the protection of persons, property and the environment. This will be the second Open House for the Phase 2 Stormwater Master Plan. The town will be presenting informationon the results of themodelling, assessment process, flood management alternatives as well as the prefered management plan for future mitigation. Drop in and share your thoughts Good planning involves the community. The town is interested in hearing from local residents, businesses, landowners and more on how we can all be rain ready in Oakville.

New tow truck licensing by-law Come to the meeting and learn more: Special Council Meeting Tuesday, June 25 at 7 p.m.Tuesday, June 25 at 7 p.m.T Town Hall, Council Chambers 1225 Trafalgar Road The Town of Oakville is implementing a tow truck licensing by-law this year that will regulate towing prices on private property and ensure that only licensed tow truck owners and vehicle storage yards operate in Oakville. If you are a tow truck owner or operate a vehicle storage yard, you will be required to obtain a licence in 2020 and renew it annually to operate in Oakville. A draft by-law is being presented to Council at the meeting on June 25. Why tow truck licensing? Tow truck companies provide an essential service in our community. Licensing will help ensure that residents have safe, consistent and reliable options after a collision or breakdown or when their vehicle is towed from private property. Want to provide your input?
