Municipal Committees

Council members serve on a number of internal and external committees, societies and boards to facilitate communication between these groups and Council as a whole. It is important to note that, while the Mayor or Councillor may be representing Council on these committees and commissions, they cannot make a decision on behalf of Council.

Waddington Health Network, North Island Heritage Society / Port Hardy Museum, Port Hardy Chamber of Commerce, Port Hardy Twinning Society, Scott Islands Advisory, and Vancouver Island Regional Library, North Island Regional Emergency Emergency Planning Committee, Vancouver Island North Woodlands Advisory Group and others.
