Canvassers in the recent Ward 2 byelection heard many complaints about enforcement of the city's property standards. Now there's an opportunity to join the Property Standards Committee. The city is currently advertising to fill one citizen position on the committee.

The committee deals with appeals related to properties determined to be not meeting minimum property standards.

The application form can be downloaded from http://www.city.hamilton.on.ca/Clerk/pdf/E-Net%20application%20form.pdf. The deadline is October 22, 2004 .
