#HamOnt Improving customer service for Hamiltonians has been a priority for me, and I’m excited to share the launch of https://t.co/nRjIgsVruu - a new online portal that makes it easier than ever to connect with City Hall.

This is an important step in modernizing how residents access @cityofhamilton services.

Through the portal, you can request services, track updates, and access important information anytime, all in one place, making it simpler and faster for Hamiltonians to get the support they need.

This is another way we’re improving our technology and systems to deliver better service and build a more responsive city.

Residents can now access a variety of services, including:

📌 Making Animal Donation Payments to support programming

📌 Garbage and Recycling requests — schedule bulk waste pickup, order extra trash tags, or request an additional green bin

📌 Licensing and Parking services — apply for outdoor patios, parking permits, or request parking restriction suspensions

📌 “Ask a Question” or “Report a Problem” to submit requests easily and conveniently

The portal also connects residents to many commonly used City services — from paying parking tickets and provincial offences fines, to engaging in City projects and registering for recreation programming.

Explore the new portal today: https://t.co/nRjIgsVruu

A beautiful Green Bench moment from Brighton, UK.

#HamOnt Last night, I was honoured to join my Council colleagues, @cityofhamilton City Manager Marnie Cluckie and community members in celebrating 30 years of the Senior of the Year Awards!

For three decades, these awards have recognized remarkable Hamiltonians aged 65 and older whose kindness, leadership, and volunteerism make our city stronger. From mentoring others to supporting neighbours and preserving local traditions, our seniors truly embody what community means.

Congratulations to all of this year’s nominees and award recipients - your compassion and dedication continue to inspire us all.

I also want to recognize Lisa Maychak, Project Manager, City of Hamilton - Lisa has been the heart of our seniors programs; helping to build connections, celebrate contributions, and make sure older adults in our community feel seen and valued. Her dedication, warmth and commitment have made a lasting difference in the lives of countless Hamiltonians.
