We want to hear from you!
We encourage residents to get involved in decisions that affect you and share your thoughts about the future of your community.
Colwood Council is always working to find new ways to inform and involve residents. Look for information on the City website, newsletters in your mailbox, ads in the local newspaper, stories shared through local media, topical news on City social media channels, posters at transit stops, signs around the City, and more. Be sure to subscribe for email updates at www.colwood.ca/Subscribe and use the City's Action Request form if you see something in the community that needs attention.
Online Action Request Form
Notice a streetlight out, a road repair issue, or something that needs attention in a local park? Please let us know! The easiest and best way to do that is by using the online Action Request form.
Your request will be automatically logged into our Action Tracking system for prompt review, attention and follow up.

Writing or speaking to Colwood Council
Write to Council any time at mayorandcouncil@colwood.ca or 3300 Wishart Road, Colwood, BC V9C 1R1.
Residents may also speak at a Council meeting during Public Participation. The Mayor will invite people to share their thoughts near the beginning of the meeting.
Understanding petitions
Petitions are received for consideration by Council as information alongside other correspondence and input. As noted on the BC Government website: "There is no requirement for a local government to take action if a petition is received; however, an informal petition can be a useful tool to bring a local matter to the council or board's attention."
