Government Relations

The role of government relations at the City of Burlington is to promote the City’s strategic priorities provincially and federally.

This is achieved by:

• building strong, positive relationships with senior levels of government;
• ensuring that City of Burlington representatives are seen as trusted advisors in the policy development process;
• raising awareness of the city’s key programs and initiatives that align with provincial and federal priorities.

The government relations team also monitors and advises council and city staff on emerging issues, polices and directives and funding opportunities from other levels of government that will impact the City of Burlington.
