Ward Boundary Review

Banner - Aerial shot of a neighbourhood

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​The City of Brampton is conducting a ward boundary review. A ward is a geographical division of a city for administrative and political purposes. The current wards in the City of Brampton were established in 2014. Since then, the city has experienced a significant growth in population and some areas of the city have seen more growth than others.

​This review aims to establish fair and equitable wards, with better representation of the citizens at the Council table. The review uses the principles of representation by population, future population trends, physical and natural boundaries, and recognition of communities of interest to evaluate the existing ward structure and alternative options. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

There are two (2) boundary realignment options. You can view them on the realignment options page.
