Office  Hours -
Mon./Wed./Fri. - 9:00 am  to  4:30 pm

The Township of Hilton employs a Clerk-Treasurer, partially, to ensure information flows easily between Council and its ratepayers. Accessibility is one of the benefits of local government and residents are encouraged to stop in to the office to address any questions or concerns they might have about any aspect of the municipal operations.   

In addition to liaising with the public on behalf of Council, the Clerk-Treasurer is also responsible for fulfilling the following duties and responsibilities, within the guidelines of legislation and policy: 

  • Providing legislative advice to Council;
  • Implementing Council decisions;
  • Conducting research and formulating policy recommendations for Council;
  • Maintaining the public record;
  • Managing municipal elections;
  • Drafting bylaws, resolutions and minutes for the Councils consideration;
  • Preparing grant applications
  • Managing the Townships financial resources including the preparation of operating and capital budgets, payroll, accounts payable/receivable, and the statutory duties associate with property tax collection

A transcript of all council meetings is prepared by the Clerk and will be posted monthly under the “Minutes” tab.  It’s easy to stay informed about what’s going on in your municipality even if you can’t attend the council meetings. 
Agendas for these meetings will also be posted prior to the monthly meetings which are scheduled for the first Wednesday of every month.


Property tax billings are issued twice per year.  The Interim billing is mailed February 1st with a due date of February 28th.  The Final billing is mailed September 1st with a due date of September 30th.
