Shelburne Council recognizes the need to publicly recognize local individuals for their outstanding achievements.

The purpose of the Community Excellence Awards is to recognize achievements in any of the following areas:

As of October 18th, 2021 Town of Shelburne administration offices will be open to the public Monday to Friday from 9 am to 4 pm and closed between 12 pm to 1pm. There will be no public access to Town Hall each day from 12 noon to 1 pm.

Only 3 things can go into the toilet Pee, Poo and Toilet Paper.

Please do not flush disinfectant wipes or paper towels down the toilet. Even wipes labeled "flushable" can clog pipes. Wipes and paper towels can cause sewage back-ups, overflows and spills which are a public health risk, cause expensive property damage and threatens our environment.
