The Township of Algonquin Highlands is seeking bids from qualified contractors to complete the following work at the Dorset Fire Station in the Township of Algonquin Highlands: waterproof the existing foundation wall; provide new subdrainage to effectively collect and outlet any groundwater to a designed catchment basin; and improve stormwater management at the westerly side of the property through the design and placement of an engineered and unique spillway situated at the base of the embankment.

The Algonquin Highlands monthly digital newsletter for July is out now! The newsletter is a great way to stay up to date on all things AH, including Council discussions, event and programming information, environmental tips and more!

Please note that a portion of Barry Line Road east of the Binscarth Trail will close on Monday, July 20 for the replacement of Barry's Bridge. Motorists are asked to use Highway 118 as a detour. Thank you for your patience.

There are just a few days left to have your say on changes to the governance structure in the County of Haliburton! 

With Canada Day falling on a Wednesday this year, it means the lighting of fireworks will be permitted in the Township of Algonquin Highlands on the holiday itself, as well as the preceding and following weekends. 

Have your say at one of five public open houses this week that will help inform the County’s community-wide Affordability and Governance Structure Study.
