Manitoba Local Government

Manitoba Local Government’s mission is to support Manitobans in building healthy, safe, sustainable and productive neighbourhoods and communities. The Department provides leadership and works collaboratively with urban, rural and northern communities to ensure they are places of opportunity. The Department’s clients include individuals, local governments and community organizations. The Department establishes a legislative, financial, planning and policy framework that supports democratic, accountable, effective and financially efficient local government and the sustainable development of our communities. Within this framework, the Department delivers programs to meet particular needs for training, on-going advice, technical analysis, promotion and funding related to community/neighbourhood revitalization and development, infrastructure development, land use management, and local governance. With a common interest in promoting the well being of our citizens and communities, the Department plays a leadership role by supporting community and neighbourhood needs and is a catalyst and co-ordinator of action. The Department promotes intergovernmental relationships and strategic partnerships amongst governments, the private sector and non-government organizations.
