The Corporate Services (COR) Department provides support to residents, visitors, Council and staff. There are four main areas of responsibility in the Corporate Services Department:

Clerks Services

Clerks Services staff keep the public and other members of staff informed of Council decisions, direction, and strategy. They are responsible for the legislative requirements for:

  • accessibility
  • vendor and lottery licensing
  • vital statistics, including death registrations, marriage licences and civil marriage ceremonies 
  • commissioner of oaths for taking affidavits (commissioning) services, but we do not have a notary public on staff
  • municipal elections
  • compensation for livestock killed or injured under the Ontario Wildlife Damage Compensation Program
  • and other statutory duties under the Municipal Act.

Clerks services staff also manage the Township's Grants and Special Assistance program, the School Crossing Guard program and maintain municipal records, including the administration of the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act and the transfer of older records with archival value to the Region of Waterloo Archives.

Enforcement Services

Enforcement Services staff deal with the enforcement and interpretation of a number of Township By-laws relating to animal control, parking enforcement, noise, signs and property standards.

Information Technology (IT) Services

Information Technology (IT) Services staff oversees the Township of Woolwich's information systems and networks to ensure an accurate, reliable and secure ability to communicate with internal staff and external customers and residents effectively.

Human Resources (HR)

Human Resources (HR) staff support other departments to plan, coordinate, and direct the staffing and administrative functions of the Township. HR staff advertise jobs and volunteer opportunities on the Careers and Volunteering page.
