City Departments

Mayor & City Council

The Mayor and Council are the wellspring of authority within the municipality. They constitute the government -- as opposed to the administration -- in that they make the laws and policies which the administration is expected to carry out. The Mayor and Council function together as a sort of unicameral legislature, but free of the partisan chasms that divide legislatures at higher levels of government. It functions best when the Mayor provides leadership to Council and when Council strives to work within the consensual model.

In this section of the City of Cambridge site, we present several pages of insight into the workings of peace, order and good government in Cambridge. See the links to your left for detailed information.

SHOW YOUR SUPPORT FOR INCREASED FUNDING FOR CAMBRIDGE MEMORIAL HOSPITAL


Our very own, Cambridge Memorial Hospital is experiencing extremely high demand due to population growth; as a result of a freeze on long-term care beds there is an increase in long-term care patients having to stay in the hospital longer; and as hospital funding has been drastically reduced, please help voice the needs of our community to the Ontario Government by signing a petition requesting an increase in funding by introducing a population-needs based funding formula for our hospitals.

A copy of the petition can be signed at Cambridge City Hall, Gerry Martiniuk MPP office or by downloading a copy of the Petition from Mr. Martiniuk's website by clicking here
