    Guide for petitions

    Petitions are used to express public opinion to the Council of The Regional Municipality of Peel.

    A petition is a formal written request, signed by at least two people, appealing to authority with respect to a particular cause.

    Every petition to be presented to Regional Council shall be legibly written, printed or provided in an electronic format, and shall be signed by at least two people and submitted to the Regional Clerk.

    Any petition within the jurisdiction of a committee shall be referred by the Regional Clerk directly to the appropriate committee, unless the matter relates to a subject or a report already scheduled to be dealt with by Regional Council.

    Petitions will be placed on the appropriate Regional Council or committee agenda for receipt, unless otherwise specified by Council or committee.

    The Regional Clerk shall not accept any form of submission that contains any obscene or improper language or content, as determined by the Regional Clerk, in consultation with the Regional Chair.

    Important: By signing the petition, the residents acknowledge that the petition may become public as part of a Regional Council or Committee agenda.
