The committee provides advice and guidance to City Council, staff, civic agencies, developers and citizens on public art matters, including the Public Art Program.
Civic Agency meetings may be in-person, electronic (as authorized by Section 14.14 of the Procedure By-law), or a hybrid of the two. Meeting agendas and minutes are posted online under the ‘Meetings’ tab below.
Virtual meetings use Cisco WebEx Webinars (formerly Webex Events). No software download is required.
Note:
Unlike meetings of City Council, there is usually no public speaking option during Civic Agency meetings. Virtual attendees will be muted and unseen by meeting participants. If you wish to get in touch with a Civic Agency, please see the contact information at the bottom of this page.
