The Tillsonburg District Chamber of Commerce is hosting the 2026 Mayor’s Address and Lunch on April 15, 2026, in Tillsonburg, Ontario. Mayor Deb Gilvesy will be the keynote speaker, sharing the municipality’s development goals and economic plans for the year.
The event will be held at the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 153. This annual meeting provides an opportunity for local business owners to ask questions about town projects and speak directly with municipal leadership about the future of the community.
The update follows the recent adoption of the 2026 municipal budget by the Town of Tillsonburg. The budget was finalized earlier this year and includes a 3.64 per cent tax increase, which helps fund local services and infrastructure investments.
Attendees will receive information on development priorities and how the town’s financial decisions will impact local business operations for the remainder of the year. Business leaders often use this lunch as a pulse check on the economic health and direction of the municipality.
The Chamber of Commerce organizes this gathering every year to help bridge the gap between town hall and the people who drive the local economy. It is a primary event for residents and stakeholders who want to stay informed about upcoming town initiatives and growth plans.
