Residents

The Town of St. Walburg provides services as per The Municipalities Act, that describes the general purpose of all municipalities.
Section 4(2) of these Acts specify that municipalities have the following purposes:

• To provide good government;
• To provide services, facilities and other things that, in the opinion of council, are necessary or desirable for all or a part of the municipality;
• To develop and maintain a safe and viable community;
• To foster economic, social and environmental well-being; and
• To provide wise stewardship of public assets.

As the environment in which municipalities operate becomes increasingly complex, it isn’t simple to categorize all of the things that municipalities do on a day-to-day basis to fulfill their purposes. Generally speaking however, it is the municipal level of government that has the most direct impact on the daily life of citizens.
