Town of Petrolia

Dear Residents & Visitors:

As the Chief Administrative Officer for the Town of Petrolia, I would like to welcome you to our re-designed website. I invite you to take a few minutes to explore the available resources our site has to offer from Council agendas, minutes, by-laws, Town departmental services, as well as business, tourism and community events information.

I am honoured to live and work in such a great town with a progressive Mayor and Council, alongside a very dedicated and talented staff.

Our Mission is to sustain the Town of Petrolia’s high quality of life for current and future generations. To accomplish this we will serve the public interest through leadership, innovation and a focus on community priorities and strengths.

BLUEWATER POWER TO BEGIN UPGRADING STREETLIGHTS TO L.E.D. MONDAY

Monday, November 3, 2014 will mark the start of an L.E.D. upgrade to the streetlights in Petrolia. There will be a notable increase of Bluewater Power vehicles in Town to complete this upgrade smoothly and quickly. Residents and motorists are reminded to use extra care with the added work crews in Town. It is estimated that the project will take around four weeks to complete. The upgrade will be predominantly to lighting fixtures, and there is no scheduled interruption of any streetlights expected during the retrofit.

If you have any questions about this project, please contact Deputy Clerk/Operations Clerk Mandi Pearson at (519)882-2350 Ext. 221.
