Georgian Bluffs is introducing a new Short-Term Rental Accommodation (STRA) Licensing Program, with an online licensing portal now open for applications.

Developed through extensive consultation with STRA operators, local businesses, and the community, this program establishes clear guidelines and requirements for short-term rental operators, ensuring responsible management and a balanced approach to short-term accommodations in the Township.

The Significant Weather Event issued on Monday, January 27 has now been lifted, and all closed roads have been reopened.

Our plow operators continue working hard to manage the impacts of winter weather following more overnight snowfall and continued strong winds. While route completion was slightly slower due to the past few days of heavy accumulation, all routes were completed.

Thank you for your patience and understanding today as we worked to address the impacts of this week’s high snowfall and blowing snow. We want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to our dedicated plow operators, who have been working hard since 2 a.m. to make our roads accessible and safe.

Georgian Bluffs invites residents to bring their voices and perspectives to the Multi-Municipal Energy Working Group (MMEWG). Council is seeking applications from engaged community members to fill one (1) vacancy on this collaborative initiative.
