Pierrefonds-Roxboro is inviting local children aged 9 to 12 to apply for the borough’s first Children’s Council. Applications are open until December 11, 2026.

The borough describes the new body as an advisory group that will give young residents a channel to comment on municipal policies, services, activities and public spaces. Members will serve a one-year renewable term and are expected to attend three meetings during the mandate.

The initiative gives families in the West Island a concrete way to involve children in local civic life. Eligibility and the application form are available on the borough’s announcement page.
