Independent general information: Independent general information. Not affiliated with HRPS, Halton Region or any municipality.

Halton residents receive services from regional, municipal and public-safety organizations. The correct source depends on the question.

Halton Region

Use Halton Region for regional services and programs such as public health, emergency preparedness, water and wastewater, housing supports and community well-being.

Confirm the responsible department on the official regional website.

Municipal websites

Burlington, Oakville and Milton publish local information about roads, recreation, by-laws, fire services, municipal facilities and local emergency planning.

Use the municipality where the property or event is located.

Halton Regional Police Service

Use HRPS for police reporting information, crime-prevention resources, fraud guidance, community programs and official police releases.

Do not rely on an independent page for current reporting instructions.

National and provincial sources
