A policy is a statement expressing the underlying Values and core beliefs of the City on certain matters, and may also provide specific direction for carrying out the City’s intent.

Council endorses the City’s biennial review of all policies. Amendments to policies, and the creation of new policies, is undertaken whenever it is considered necessary.
