Winnipeg city councillors will hold their first electronic meeting of council next week. At an emergency meeting earlier this month, councillors agreed to temporarily hold council and committee meetings electronically to ensure physical distancing during the COVID-19 outbreak.
On Tuesday, the city announced Monday’s Property and Development, Heritage and Downtown Development meeting will be the first of the new socially-distanced meetings.
Councillors and required members of the public service will have the option of taking part by attending in person or connecting by Zoom video conferencing.
Going forward all city council and committee meetings will be conducted electronically until at least May. [ Sign up for our Health IQ newsletter for
