What is an eTown Hall?

At a regular Town Hall meeting, you can attend in person and ask Council questions related to a specific subject in an open forum. The 'e' stands for 'electronic,' and with eTown Hall events, there are additional opportunities to participate. These include: the City’s website, Facebook page, Twitter feed (using #NanaimoTH) and in person at the meeting.
